How this new UK university could help solve Neets crisis

Jump to contentAllNewsSportCultureLifestyleThe University of Kent and the University of Greenwich have legally merged to form the London and South East University Group (LASE), creating the UK's first super-university. Accommodating over 50,000 students across four campuses in London, Medway, and Kent, LASE is now the third-largest higher education institution in the UK. LASE chief executive Professor Jane Harrington stated the combined scale will help the group tackle the crisis of young people not in employment, education, or training (Neets).
