Abstract

The world of education within the UK is in turmoil. As in other countries there is a blurring between education and training. Teachers at all levels are faced with implementing the National Curriculum. Polytechnics are coming to terms with their independence from local authorities and dependence for (decreasing levels of) funding on the Polytechnics and Colleges funding Council. The Universities are grappling with their own new funding body — the Universities Funding Council. Students are likely to be faced with taking out ‘top‐up’ loans. The National Vocational Council lurks around the next comer to put in its ‘threepennyworth’.
