Professor Ang Davies, University Academic Lead for Lifelong Learning, said:
We are delighted to see this lifelong learning partnership recognised at a national level. The Teach Economics programme demonstrates what can be achieved when universities and external partners work together with a shared purpose鈥�.
By supporting educators and broadening access to economics, we are helping to shape a more diverse and inclusive pipeline of future economists. This is exactly the kind of impact lifelong learning should deliver, and I am incredibly proud of the team behind it.
The recognition reflects the University鈥檚 continued commitment to lifelong learning and to creating opportunities that enable learners from all backgrounds to engage with higher education.
