Student group plans legal action against 36 UK universities after settling with University College London

Over 6,000 current and former students, including 30 Indians in India, have reached an out-of-court settlement with UCL (University College London) over Covid disruptions and lecturer strikes.

This now paves the way for the Student Group Claim to bring legal action on behalf of about 100,000 other current and former students, including 217 Indians in India, against a further 36 British universities. These universities, which include Imperial College London, LSE, King’s College London, have all been sent pre-action claim letters. The case against UCL was the first case the group was bringing and had been due to be heard in court in March.
