Hello SEDA,
I've been lurking on this list for a while but I'm still
pretty new to the UK and am currently trying to get to
grips with student demographics and trends here for a small
project on minority group student experiences in HE. I've
found statistical data from HESA and DFEE & a somewhat
older but rather full report from IES. ERIC yields mostly
American stuff, and having recently come from a completely
different national/cultural context myself, I'm aware of
the dangers of relying on data foreign to the
present context.
What I'm really wondering is if I'm missing some obvious,
vital, recent and comprehensive material on how students
who identify with marginalised groups experience HE in the
UK. Can anyone point me at anything like this?
Thanks very much,
Debra
