Welsh Government priorities

HEFCW is a Welsh Government Sponsored Body. We receive an annual remit letter from the Welsh Government outlining our priority work areas for the following year, to be delivered for the funding we are allocated.

We operate in an overall policy environment set by the Welsh Government, with many of our priorities set out in:
  • For our Future – The 21st Century Higher Education Strategy and Plan for Wales
  • One Wales (2007), which sets out the programme for the government of Wales over the National Assembly’s term to 2011
  • Skills that Work for Wales (2008) which comprises the Welsh Government’s skills and employment strategy, including associated documents such as Transforming Education and Training Provision in Wales – Delivering Skills that Work for Wales
