As the EU-UK negotiations on a future relationship continue informally, it is now imperative that both the UK and the EU continue to work constructively and in the spirit of compromise to meaningfully advance discussions on the future of UK participation in the Erasmus+ programme. We welcome both the UK’s and EU’s respective mandates on their mutual desire to foster cooperation in higher, vocational and school education and are pleased to see progress made on the UK’s participation in Union programmes during last week’s negotiations. We take note of each side’s desire to come to an agreement that would allow the UK to participate in the next Erasmus+ programme.
