This will enable universities to offer up to 10,000 new training places for students to start these courses in this Parliament.</p><p> </p><p>This reflects estimates on the level of unmet demand for places in the current system where, as an example, for nursing, around two out of three nursing applicants who currently apply for a place are turned down.</p><p> </p><p>The Government is working with health and higher education delivery organisations to determine an appropriate baseline as part of implementing the reforms.</p> more like this
