I can't name the 27 colleges and universities forecasting deficits – here is why (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The names of 27 colleges and universities that are forecasting deficits are being withheld, citing commercial sensitivity. Do these concerns outweigh those of prospective students and staff? The Scottish Funding Council (SFC) publishes annual reports on the sustainability of Scotland’s colleges and universities. Consecutive reports have shown multiple institutions facing adjusted operating deficits in each sector, and have forecasted that more will be in similar positions in the future. In previ
Two-thirds of Scottish colleges and universities forecast deficits (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Two-thirds of Scotland's colleges and universities forecast deficits in 2027/2028, according to a new report. The Scottish Funding Council’s (SFC) latest sustainability reports show that 25 of 41 institutions recorded adjusted operating deficits in 2024/2025: 10 out of 17 universities and 15 out of 24 colleges.

Criticisms included accusations that the university is abandoning its commitment to Scottish culture, scrapping speciality arts
Time will tell the truth of the two sides in Edinburgh's restructuring battle (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I graduated from the University of Edinburgh with an MSc in Science and Religion. It is one of 90 programmes across the College of Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences (CAHSS) that will close to new entrants next year. I was drawn to the programme by its unique and, at the time, world-leading comparative approach to seemingly disparate worldviews. I took away a clear understanding that, more often than not, diametrically opposed viewpoints share common ground. Ground that can either be the basi
