Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, with reference to the Written Statement of 19 November 2018 on TEF reviewer appointment, HLWS1060, what provision will be made for students to give evidence to the review.

Dame Shirley Pearce is very keen to hear the views of students in the review of the Teaching Excellence and Student Outcomes Framework. She will engage with as many students as possible during the review both by encouraging students to respond to the public consultation and by finding a range of other ways to hear the views of students.

Dame Shirley will shortly be announcing the membership of the group that she is establishing to advise her. This group will include a student representative.
