What if we built a university where our first principle is to own as little as possible? I had a ball of a time chatting with the indomitable Paul Greatrix about imaginings for a university that made the most of a bold and fully implemented Lifelong Learning Entitlement.

Manchester Met has made me a better educator and a more savvy and intuitive leader. I hope I reciprocate by leaving a semblance of sustainable positive influence in its culture and practice. I look forward to forging new impacts at King’s working

It means leaving @ManMetUni after 16 years full of joy and challenge and invention (and the odd bit of frustration obvs). I will be forever grateful to an institution that is bold enough and committed enough to its student to embrace radical new ideas;

I’ll work to co-construct a distinctive education proposition for the college, one centred on lifting the agency of students, and their access to and benefit from the full richness of university opportunities.

As part of a panel with @EveAlcock and @jim_dickinson on the consequences of time/poverty, I'll be exploring the 'quiet crisis' of attendance, and the ways in which a radical relaxing might speak to it, whilst placing student agency at the very heart of our concerns.

It was a tough [and thankfully not annual] process - but it really exposed the student-centred and progressive 'bones' of Man Met. I'm so glad the TEF panellists were as impressed by this as I.
