UK seals deal to rejoin the EU's Erasmus programme for students

Negotiations to date-and are believed to have got Erasmus over the line.

The UK quit Erasmus after Brexit, when Boris Johnson claimed the programme did not offer value for money. The Labour government agreed to reopen negotiations at the UK-EU summit last May, and has been seeking to bring down the cost of UK participation.

Before Brexit the UK was a net contributor to the scheme, with more European students coming to Britain than UK students studying abroad.

The Erasmus scheme started in 1987 as a university exchange programme but has expanded over the past decade to include work and training placements, and is regarded as an important tool of soft power and research cooperation.

The UK rejoining the £23bn Erasmus scheme has been a key demand from EU capitals as part of “reset” talks, alongside a mobility deal that would grant young Europeans the right to live and work in the UK for several years and Britons to do the same in Europe.
