Watchdog set to clamp down on universities with 'artificial' grade inflation

England’s higher education regulator will clamp down on universities with artificial grade inflation, or where the quality of courses falls below expectations, under tougher proposals.
The Office for Students (OfS) has set out proposed new requirements to allow the watchdog to intervene more frequently in English universities and colleges to protect quality and standards in higher education.
The proposals – which are now open for consultation – include new detailed conditions of registration for quality and standards.
Institutions that fail to address concerns about artificial grade inflation or poor quality could potentially face monetary penalties, or they could have their registration revoked, the OfS said.
