Question
To ask the Scottish Government what plans it has for a replacement scheme for Erasmus, following the UK's exit from the EU.
Answer
The Scottish Government recognises the importance of educational mobility. While we remain committed to Erasmus plus, in the interim we are creating a Scottish Education Exchange Programme to support participants from across Scotland’s education system.
This is a Programme for Government commitment and will help maintain Scotland’s place as an outward looking, internationally connected destination for work and study.
