2023 was UK ELT's best year since the pandemic, our student statistics show.

Student numbers rose to 76% of 2019 levels and student weeks to 71%. Recovery was more evenly distributed than in 2022, with twice as many of our members exceeding their 2019 student weeks – 26% compared with 13%.

Our new manifesto explains how the next UK government can support UK ELT. We have six simple policy recommendations, which would enable our industry to do more for the UK.

We have welcomed some new members to the English UK family recently.

Our 2024 parliamentary reception takes place on the Terrace Pavilion of the House of Commons on Thursday 16 May from 13:30 - 15:30.

Please encourage your current or prospective MP to attend. Read our advice to help you decide who to invite. 

We are delighted to have such an incredible group of candidates standing for election this year.
