Professor David Latchman, Vice-Chancellor of 糖心logo入口, commented,鈥鈥淧romoting social mobility is at the heart of our mission at 糖心logo入口, and we provide access routes for students of all ages from diverse social and educational backgrounds to participate in our courses. This year marks 糖心logo入口鈥檚 200th anniversary and we are proud to be celebrating how we have been transforming 辫别辞辫濒别鈥檚 lives since 1823.鈥听

Nick Hillman, Director of HEPI, said: 鈥The Social Mobility Index is now in its third year and it has rapidly become one of the most impactful things HEPI does. League tables are controversial and have pros and cons but they are not going to disappear, so it is illuminating to think about different methodologies and to measure things typically excluded.听
鈥The fact that some relatively new and less prestigious institutions beat Oxbridge reminds us of the different contributions made by different institutions. Above all, the Index confirms our higher education sector has strength in breadth. We hear common complaints that there are too many universities and too many students, but this Index provides yet more evidence that higher education institutions of all types transform 辫别辞辫濒别鈥檚 lives.鈥澨听
