Erasmus and the European Union  

The United Kingdom (U.K.) has announced that it has successfully agreed terms with the European Union for the United Kingdom to rejoin the Erasmus+ programme in 2027. The agreement forms part of a broader package of UK‑EU cooperation measures and marks a significant shift in post‑Brexit education and mobility policy. 

According to the announcement, rejoining Erasmus+ will widen access to international study, training, and youth mobility opportunities for: 

• Young people from all backgrounds 
• Learners in further and higher education 
• Educational staff 
• Youth workers 
• Sport staff 

The government highlights that participation in Erasmus+ will help broaden horizons, support skills development and strengthen cultural and educational ties across Europe. 

The U.K. and EU also agreed to advance negotiations in other areas of cooperation, including electricity market integration and future trade‑related discussions, as part of the ongoing UK‑EU “reset” initiative.
