UK 'must sell education to world' - Sean Coughlan, BBC News
The UK must be a serious player in the global market for students if it is to prosper, says the Education Secretary, Charles Clarke. He told a British Council conference in Edinburgh that global education was worth £10.4bn a year to the economy. The British Council says there are a million overseas students in the UK and that the number of students ready to study in other countries is set to increase further. It also expects to see more "transnational" institutions, such as universities and colleges, setting up campuses abroad or offering courses by distance learning.
