"Are colleges cutting more jobs than they need to?" Education | The Guardian

Fascinating article which is essential reading!

Note the financial rewards offered to the Principal of Newcastle College, Dame Jackie Fisher, after announcing mass job losses and a 30% cut to a lecturers salary!

"These changes are implemented under the guise of funding cut reactions. The college made approx. 10.3 million SURPLUS last year and gave Dame Jackie Fisher a 30% pay rise to achieve a £250k+ salary." Comment made in response to article. Northmale 29 June 2011 1:34PM
