The Office for Students (OfS), the independent regulator of higher education in England, has today launched eight new investigations designed to tackle poor quality courses.
This set of investigations will look specifically at business and management courses, including an examination of whether poor quality online learning has replaced face to face teaching to the detriment of students’ academic experience.
The investigations will consider whether courses at the eight universities and colleges meet the OfS’s conditions for quality, which came into effect in May this year.
