UK's International Education Strategy Targets £40 Billion Exports with Focus on India

The UK has launched a new International Education Strategy aiming to increase education exports to £40 billion annually by 2030, with India identified as a key focus country alongside Indonesia, Nigeria, Saudi Arabia, and Vietnam. The strategy shifts from targeting international student numbers in the UK to expanding UK education overseas through international campuses and partnerships. A new Education Sector Action Group will support this expansion, while tougher compliance standards will ensure genuine student recruitment. The UK-India education partnership aligns with broader bilateral cooperation goals.
