Wider Information Set

At Bishop Grosseteste University, we are committed to making it easy for prospective and current students and the general public to access information about our University.

The Higher Education Funding Council for England (HEFCE) has specified the information that they expect higher education providers to make available online or by request. The following information forms part of what HEFCE has described as a Wider Information Set (WIS).

The wider information has two purposes:

  • To provide information about HE to a wide variety of audiences including: prospective and current students, students’ parents and advisers, employers, the media, and the institution itself;
  • To form part of the evidence used within quality assurance reviews.

We've been here in the historic heart of Lincoln for over 150 years, a beautifully green and pleasant campus just a few minutes walk from Lincoln Cathedral, Castle and the old Roman city. We've seen a lot of things come and go in that time, but we've never stopped providing first-class education, turning out graduates of the highest calibre who go out into the world and change people's lives for the better.
