• What are your biggest concerns about the impact of Brexit on higher education?

• What immediate steps do you believe the Government should take to prevent any possible negative impact from Brexit on higher education?

• What should be prioritised in the Government’s negotiations for the UK to exit the European Union with regard to students and staff at universities?
