Greg Clark – new minister for cities, universities & science
Willetts’s replacement will apparently split his HE and science responsibilities with his other job in the Cabinet Office as minister responsible for cities.
Greg Clark is an unknown quantity to me but he did say this about undergraduate funding in July 2011:
the purpose of our higher education reforms is to make sure that the courses that British undergraduates and postgraduates take are well taught and of a high quality so that they produce positive returns to individuals and the country – and not unserviceable debt for both.
I guess he gets to tackle that problem head on.
