Margaret Hodge

My right hon. Friend the Secretary of State set out the scope of the current review of higher education in her speech at the London Guildhall university on 22 October 2001.

The review will cover the key areas that form the overall mission of the higher education sector, looking to the longer-term structure of incentives required to ensure that each is resourced and supported. The areas being considered in the review are:

  • Widening participation
  • World-class research
  • Linking universities with industry and communities
  • Teaching excellence
  • Management and leadership.
