As students get ready to see if their A levels match up to their offers, how sure can they be the universities will still be there to award their eventual degrees? Higher education is in something of a financial crisis - not enough money from fees, not enough foreign students to make up the shortfall, and the best academics heading abroad for higher pay. Is the whole model of young people building up huge debts for sometimes questionable courses sustainable? Will some universities have to close or merge in order to survive?
Chris Millward, Professor Practice In Education Policy at the University of Birmingham, gives Phil and Roger the prospects for Britain’s higher education.
