PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
(17 April 2025)

Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what steps she is taking to encourage academic partnerships between UK and Ukrainian universities.

Asked by:
Dr Scott Arthur (Labour)

Answer

Education is a devolved matter, and the response outlines the information for England only.

As part of the government’s unbreakable 100 Year Partnership with Ukraine, the department is working closely with the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine on a range of policy areas including early years, skills and apprenticeships, and the application of digital technologies in schools. There is already higher education (HE) twinning and partnerships underway through the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office’s UK-Ukraine twinning programme and British Council’s Leaders of University Transformation for Ukraine’s Reinvention programme which have set a good foundation for further UK-Ukraine HE partnerships to emerge.
