The UKI Forum, set up in May 2021 highlights the needs of International pupils studying in the UK as they transition to Higher Education. The Forum offers:

• Bespoke Events – where UK Universities can engage with relevant schools’ personnel and UKI students already studying in the UK.
• Newsletters – aimed at UKI/International students to advise of key UK higher education events & information
• Research into the UKI/international student sector – at each Event the Forum runs, UKI students are surveyed and the results are presented to UKI Forum Board members.
• Publicity and promotion – to highlight the work of the Forum, notably the research results (see above).
