Alliance Employment and Learning Spokesperson Chris Lyttle MLA has praised higher education institutions in Northern Ireland after the sixth National Students Survey showed 83% of respondents here being satisfied with their course in comparison with 82% across the UK .

Chris Lyttle MLA said: “Higher education plays such an important role in our society. It helps provide the expertise we need to drive our economy. Higher education is all about building for the future and I am very pleased at the results of this survey.

“It is, however, important that we maintain these high standards going forward and ensure that our graduates are given the best careers advice possible so that we can maximise this potential for our labour market and our economy.
