While the High Court declined to make any finding in relation to universities' duty of care in the Abrahart decision (in which the court found that a university had failed to make reasonable adjustments, which contributed to a student's death), this issue remains in the spotlight. A petition, led by the campaign group For The 100, calling for a statutory duty of care for students in higher education, was signed by over 128,000 and triggered a debate in Parliament in 2023. However, the government declined to take any further action citing the duties already held by universities. The extent of universities' duty of care towards students therefore remains unclear and will remain a live issue for some time with further claims likely to come.
