Students galore

After the pandemic, are universities in Scotland too reliant on international students?

And so it came to pass: Andrea Jenkyns has been appointed minister for skills and further and higher education in England. We do not know what to tell you. Now might be a good time to take a holiday.

Jenkyns will be minister at least for the duration of the summer holidays, until a new prime minister can form a government. Depending on who it is, Jenkyns might hang around longer. There is infinite hope, as Franz Kafka once wrote, but not for us.
