Grade inflation, skills, student housing, care leavers

This week on the podcast there’s new figures on the impact of the pandemic on students to discuss. Did those studying away from home “stay away” as asked? There’s also the skills agenda, grade inflation, the hidden history of student accommodation and our “boarding school” model, a new report on care-experienced students, and DK digs into the University of St Andrews (Degrees in Medicine and Dentistry) Bill.  With Michael Taylor, External Affairs Advisor at Manchester Metropolitan University, Cat Turhan, Policy Analyst at the Russell Group and presented by Jim Dickinson, Associate Editor at Wonkhe.
