There are 130(ish) institutions recognised by the Office of Students as #universities or university colleges
There are 108 (see image) open redundancy schemes currently running...

My #HigherEducation hot take today:
#Teaching quality, #GrantCapture, and #ResearchEfficacy are all inversley proportional to the degree of #AdministrativeBurden an #academic is exposed to.
Contemporary #HEIs have, to their detriment, all sacrificed the former on the altar of the latter.
It's almost as if he is planning to use it for nefarious reasons...🤔 #HeIs #WeNeedToRegulateAI
In the UK, we have seen governing bodies, "Executive Search Firms", and UUK almost conspire to hire those inculcated into the worst forms of #ToxicManagerialism to lead #HEIs.
It's a major reason we see the crises in #UKHE at present (along with underfunding).
🔵 INSPIRING ERA at the CATALISI webinar
Our project joins CATALISI, @accfuturehei.bsky.social & aUPaEU to discuss how #HEIs can drive an open, impactful R&I ecosystem under the 2025–27 #ERAPolicyAgenda.

As @the1752group.bsky.social have long noted, many #HEIs in UK have failed to handle #SexualMisconduct, harassment, and abuse appropriately.
Hallmarks are:
1. Inaction
2. Secrecy
3. Inadequate/inappropriate investigation
4. DARVO
5. Allowing resignation rather than dismissal
6. NDAs
#UKHE
When it comes to #HigherEducation and #HEIs in the UK this point about tech-assisted #Academia and resistance rings disturbingly true.
#AcademicBlusky
We are more than proud to be part of #CoDOA-CH right from the start. Together with #Swiss #HEIs, SLSP and further, the goal is to push true #openaccess with a sustainable #funding scheme for #DiamondOpenAccess in #Switzerland.

I'm a #catperson by nature, but I❤️our dog so much sometimes I get overwhelmed & give him a big ol' polar bear hug. I like 2 think he trusts me & is in no way terrified when I lose myself 2 the cuddles, but I have no way of knowing that for sure.

Given the monumental waste of resources that this nonsense costs #HEIs in the UK, whilst #Universities are already under massive cost pressures, it should be abandoned altogether!

If you work in #HigherEducation this toolkit is essential reading.
From 01/08/25 the OfS are adding a new condition of registration ("E6") regulating #HEIs in England on preventing and responding to harassment and sexual misconduct.
#PostGraduate researchers are particularly at risk.

In our recent #KnowledgeExchangeCommunity discussion, it became clear that many Ukrainian #HEIs are now prioritising deeper partnerships. Instead of new contacts, it’s about strengthening what’s already in place.
Kudos to #TCD for taking this action. Hopefully other #HEIs will follow suit asap. #IFUT

Brilliant presentation about AI policies in Higher Education from the perspective of a neurodiverse student by Deano Lund at Leeds Trinity - all #HEIs should watch this and reflect on their "rules and regs" around #AI - youtu.be/o0VBu8AcO3E?...
Three fundamental Qs for #HEIs planning staffing cuts:
1. How much money have you spent on consultants in the last 5 years?
2. To what degree have your management structures expanded in last 10years?
3. How much is being spent on VC vanity projects?
