The government has appointed a university vice-chancellor as its student wellbeing tsar to try to help those struggling in higher education.

Professor Edward Peck, vice-chancellor and president of Nottingham Trent University, has been revealed as the government's student support champion.

He will work with universities to help them support students struggling with their mental health.

The government says it hopes the new role will reduce drop-out rates.
