target="_blank">252019</a>.</p><p>Further to this, the government is considering the
value for money of the UK's participation in the Erasmus+ programme. This includes
a range of monetisable and non-monetisable benefits and costs to ensure we capture
all sources of potential economic value and cost. We will also want to consider carefully
the impact of any of these options on students from disadvantaged backgrounds and
those with disabilities in our assessments.</p><p>This assessment is ongoing and is
part of a wider, cross-government exercise on considering value for money of EU programmes.</p><p>Ultimately,
any decisions about our participation in the Erasmus+ programme will also be a matter
for wider negotiations about our future relationship with the EU.</p>
