Abstract
This paper reports the results of an online survey of senior managers with responsibility for widening participation (WP) in English universities. 57 institutions participated, giving a response rate of 38 percent. The questionnaire primarily focused on (a) the targeting of WP activity, (b) concepts of success, (c) perceptions of ‘successful’ WP activities, (d) perceptions of institution WP success, and (e) approaches to evaluation.
