Unpicking the immigration white paper with the International Higher Education Commission
By The PIE
Will the UK remain a top destination for global talent?
Join us for a high-level, timely discussion on the UK Government’s Immigration White Paper and its profound implications for international higher education in the UK.
This webinar brings together policy leaders and sector experts to unpack how the White Paper aligns—or collides—with the IHEC’s proposed strategy for sustainable growth in international recruitment, innovation, and research excellence. We’ll examine what’s at stake for the Graduate Route, visa policy, regional diversification, and the broader international student experience.
Drawing on the IHEC’s landmark report “A Framework for a Future UK International Higher Education Strategy,” we’ll explore:
- How immigration reforms could affect international student flows and institutional sustainability.
- What a more data-driven visa regime might look like.
- Why protecting the Graduate Route is essential for UK competitiveness.
- How the sector can respond collectively to ensure global talent continues to view the UK as a first-choice destination.
This is essential insight for senior leaders navigating the intersection of migration policy and institutional strategy.

- Pat Saini, Partner & Head Immigration Practice, Penningtons, Manches Cooper
- Janet Ilieva, Founder, Education Insight
- Professor Diana Beech, Director Finsbury Institute, City St George's
