The university sector is a real strength for our economy and a hub for local industry - important to recognise the challenges many are under now as this sets out and how we should be championing them 👇 https://lnkd.in/exUafB9t

As someone who has spent nearly half my career in academia this does not make good reading for many reasons not to mention that I have many colleagues giving their best to research and teaching and they can only watch as the politics play out. The education system needs a thorough examination and we need to answer some hard questions: do we have too many Universities? University used to be the only way of getting an education but is that still the case? Is a degree still necessary to be effective in the workplace? We have postponed this discussion for too long, we cannot keep kicking the can down the road. Let’s have the discussion starting with: what is a University for in today’s society?

Are "back door" routes for sub-standard international students taking spots from UK students? Or do International Foundation/International Year One options level the playing field? At TTT, only 2 of our many international students have been offered the International Foundation by UK universities, but both students and their parents rejected it in favour of the standard UCAS route and working for the grades. What do you think about the International Foundation/International Year One? Share your thoughts in the comments. #university #internationaleducation #internationalstudents

🇬🇧 Our universities are facing serious challenges, and the constant criticism of foreign students is not helping. David Blunkett sheds light on how vital overseas students are to the UK's higher education sector, and why undermining them threatens the entire system. 💼 Universities contribute over £116 billion to our economy every year, with overseas students alone providing a net gain of over £37 billion. Yet, recent political rhetoric and restrictions on foreign students are damaging this crucial sector. 💔 The impact is already visible: falling student numbers, financial cuts, and the looming threat of insolvency for many universities. It's a lose-lose scenario when government policies prioritize negative politics over the growth and success of our educational institutions. 🎓 We need to support our universities by embracing international students, acknowledging their value, and removing barriers to their success. The UK should be a welcoming place for talent from around the world, not a nation that closes its doors to future leaders, innovators, and entrepreneurs. We need to rebuild our reputation and ensure that our universities continue to be a source of pride and innovation. https://lnkd.in/e9FZqWzk
