WQ80853 (e) Tabled on 05/08/2020

What discussions has the Minister had following her statement to the Senedd on 15 January 2020 to look at a UK-wide scheme as a replacement, if participation of the Erasmus+ scheme was not an option?

Answered by Minister for Education | Answered on 14/08/2020

Since the 15th January, my Devolved Government counterparts and I have continued to press the UK Government to pursue our preferred option of future participation in Erasmus.

In addition, we have met and discussed our respective positions on the development of a potential UK-wide domestic alternative to Erasmus.  The focus of discussions has been on work to develop a four nations approach rather than a three nations approach at this stage.
