An evidence plan for the evaluation of the ‘Diamond reforms’, following an independent review of student finance in Wales led by Sir Ian Diamond in 2016.
This is the latest release
This evaluation plan sets out the intended approach to evaluating the Diamond Reforms to student finance in Wales.
The plan provides a framework for how we will gather and synthesise evidence to help us understand the impact of the changes implemented as a result of the Diamond Review in 2016.
The proposed research activities seek to evaluate the reforms whilst meeting evidence needs for Welsh Government objectives now and into the future.
Some aspects of the student finance arrangements in Wales have been amended since the time of writing this evaluation plan. These changes were announced on 4 December 2024: Written Statement: Financial support for higher education students in the 2025/26 academic year and tuition fee limits
