If you add up the total number of jobs at risk in UK universities using @ucu's latest update, you'll see that 2263 jobs could go - a huge crisis. If govt & unions are pressing Tata for jobs guarantees, why isn't the same being done for Higher Education? ucu.org.uk/your-support-is-n…

We are very sad to say good-bye to Dr Barbara Eichner and Prof Alexandra Wilson today, who are made to leave the University after they were part of the music team for 15 and 19 years respectively.

We've all worked for people like Paula Vennells - they're everywhere. People who are over-promoted and lack both the morals and critical thinking skills to do the job they're paid for. That's why the public have so much empathy for those affected - because it could happen to us.

Very pleased to see this: schools required from September 2024 to publish their music development plans. One part of a large jigsaw, but an important one nonetheless. gov.uk/government/publicatio…

Closing university music departments does not chime with common sense

Oxford Brookes’ confirmation of its decision this week is another blow to the UK’s status as a global music powerhouse, says Daniel Grimley

Replying to @BrookesUCU @oxford_brookes
Always deeply worrying when university depts and courses have to be cut for financial reasons. I'm meeting with those affected next week in order to hear the issues and arguments around the closure of maths and music courses. I hope to have a handle on the reasons following that.
