Important point. The Govt is now keen that quals originally not designed to lead to access to university do in fact lead to access to university and that universities publicise this fact. But have the quals been redesigned in light of their adjusted purpose?

Assuming Will Quince keeps his old job, it seems likely that universities will be looked after for now by an Under-Secretary of State, whereas Michelle Donelan was a Minister of State, a member of the Privy Council, attended Cabinet and had a spad.

Talking about homelessness at the Lighthouse Policy Gp today with a delegate and remembered my dissertation 31 years ago. Young homelessness was on the rise. I fear a repeat especially with cost of living crisis and a lack of Government support.
