The UK is rejoining Erasmus+. This is what it means. 🧵

In 2020, the UK left one of Europe’s most impactful education programmes as part of Brexit.

From 2027, we’re back in, fully.

Erasmus+ is the EU’s flagship programme for education, training and youth exchange. It funds students to study abroad, apprentices to train at European companies, and educators to work with institutions across Europe.

This isn’t a small deal. Over 100,000 people are expected to participate in the very first year. And UK universities will be able to rebuild the research partnerships and academic networks that went quiet after we left.

The agreement was signed in Brussels on 15 April 2026, part of a broader reset in UK-EU relations under the current government.

For students from less advantaged backgrounds especially, this matters. Evidence shows that studying abroad improves long-term career outcomes, and this reopens that door at scale.

Official participation begins the 2027/28 academic year.
If this affects you, someone you know, or an institution you’re part of, save this and share it.
