The @UniofNewcastle Stephenson Engineering Building is looking good! The building's engineering, the number of young apprentices from across the #NorthEast & the use of local materials are impressive. I'm sure the stunning design will inspire NE engineers for generations.

Great to hear Prof Steve Jones discussing medical education @NewcastleMedSch with @amolrajan this morning - a typically measured, expert and compelling case for what is needed

'The scale of the crisis is too large'.... an important call to government to recognise that our students need support. No-one can learn effectively if they're cold or hungry. Schools, colleges and universities are doing all they can but government action is needed

It is worth remembering that no one, absolutely no one, is calling for domestic tuition fees to rise by 100-200%. Universities are worried that fees have not kept up with inflation of c.10%.
