Universities Challenged

With one of the oldest University systems in the world it was inevitable any change would attract passionate opinions from Government, Students, Graduates, Employers and Parents across England. The problem is no-one can agree but a decision could be made based on Lord Browne's report.


From our point of view we can see it from many angles and despite it being an increase in cost to parents and students they are now consumers with rights. Students should expect value for money and a world beating education for the investment they are making in further education. For Universities they now have the much needed funding to get them back on an even keel and start climbing back up the world league rankings and deliver on student expectations. Meanwhile, employers will continue to benefit from the pool of talented graduates with skills and intellect to drive this country out of the recession.
