Almost nine in 10 students in England say they feel free to express themselves on campus, according to the results of the latest National Student Survey (NSS).
Including the question for the first time, the Office for Students (OfS) asked undergraduates how free they felt to express their ideas, opinions and beliefs, and received around 280,000 responses across providers in England.
Of them, 38 per cent said they felt very free, and 48 per cent said they felt free – meaning 86 per cent responded positively to the question.
Of all the questions asked by the OfS in this year’s survey, this was among the most positive outcomes.
