Growing Student Crisis Identified With Pressure Mounting On Universities And Colleges

More information and statistics on these headlines here.

As a result of the number of growing areas of concern, students' well-being and their education are being adversely affected by the pressure they face and there has been a sharp rise in students dropping out. This creates a massive growth in demand for support which institutions are struggling to keep up with and in turn, is piling more pressure on already overstretched staff and student welfare budgets. Due to Ready Education's strong vision to improve student success in higher education worldwide, they have been closely monitoring all aspects of this within tertiary education and actively looking for solutions.

"Student retention rates have always been of great concern to universities and colleges and any issue that concerns students wellbeing and success is generally tackled head-on as and when it becomes a priority. This year there has been an unprecedented amount of pressure increasing within all elements of student life and this has challenged universities and colleges in how to address and what to prioritise" states Andrew Taylor(Vice President, Sales, E2AP, Ready Education)

"Support services are overwhelmed and demand has tripled, if not more over the past four years. As drop out rates increase, spending is falling per student in real terms and this could very well lead to a potential funding crisis. Higher ed leaders know they need new ways to help students succeed. But without the right data or tools they leave a lot for existing overstretched resources."

Holding conversations on how institutions can address these issues, Ready Education has partnered with leading bodies to host informative and thought-provoking webinars.
