Answer
When a provider of publicly-funded qualifications in England closes down, the department’s primary goal is to ensure that any students impacted are able to continue with their learning.
The department has specialist teams with specific processes in place (depending on provider type, qualification type and contract type) to effectively manage such closures, with a focus on continuity for the students concerned.
