AB  - This is the third in a series of three linked articles
describing the major changes which are taking place
in English public sector higher education as a result
of the Education Reform Act 1988. The new
Polytechnics and Colleges Funding Council had
introduced a radically different system of competitive
tendering which, although it was being brought in
incrementally was already having a significant impact
on institutional management. The way in which the
competitive tendering exercise was operated and
its outcomes is examined. The conclusion is that
this exercise was an important development in the
fundamental redirection of higher education in
Britain.
