Deadline extension

Please note the deadline for institutions to be included in the first post of updates for Chinese partners and students remains this Friday 21 February.

The original post will be updated on a weekly basis. Institutions who would like to update Chinese partners and students after the deadline for the first post are invited to continue to submit applications until Friday 6 March. 

Opportunity

The COVID-19 outbreak is having a significant impact on UK-China education operations. In China, students, agents, school counsellors and Chinese partner institutions are facing considerable challenges to their day to day business. 

In order to support the UK education sector and partners and students in China the British Council is launching a free service for UK institutions to communicate key updates to Chinese students and business partners through our social media platforms.

The British Council will collect updates from UK institutions and organise into a dedicated post through our Study UK WeChat and Weibo platforms.

Benefits for UK institutions

• Keep Chinese students and business partners updated in a timely manner
• A unified platform for the UK sector to demonstrate support for Chinese students and business partners

Timeline

Format

Information will be presented in an easy to read table format, divided by sector (e.g. schools, HE, etc.) and in alphabetical order.
