New think piece of higher education on-Island
The Policy Centre has published a new think piece University education on-Island - some reflections on the past . The author, Dr Michael Goldstein, former Vice Chancellor of Coventry University, carried out a huge amount of work between 2004 and 2015 on higher education in Jersey. The paper notes that some progress has been made but that there continues to be a complete absence of Government policy or strategy for higher education. The paper argues that much more needs to be done to develop a strategic approach to improving the scale and scope of on-Island higher education and that there needs to be far better cooperation between the various delivery parties. The paper concludes that “the previously proposed Higher Education Centre for Jersey would be a practical way to achieve these objectives, and thereby better serve the interests and needs of the Jersey population”.
