This growth in demand presents a range of opportunities and challenges for the sector as we seek to support students.

In response to these projections, we have partnered with Knight Frank and Unite Students to release the ‘Journey to a Million: What will be the impact of the growing demand for post-secondary education across the student lifecycle?’ collection of essays. As well as this, WONKHE published an article from our Chief Executive, Clare Marchant, ‘The Journey to a Million applicants to HE starts today’, you can view this here.
