9m
An OECD report compared teacher conditions across Europe, citing Spain’s primary-secondary teaching-hours gap, falling Portuguese starting pay and German education spending it said could be better allocated.
'The Westminster government’s contribution to funding domestic undergraduates studying in England fell in real terms from £8.9 billion in 2012-13 to just £3.3bn in 2024-25, a drop of more than 60 per cent, an analysis has found.'
Government funds just 16p in every £1 spent on teaching.
Balance of higher education funding now “badly out of whack”, says Universities UK chief.

'government now expects to fund just 16p in every £1 spent on teaching and supporting undergraduates in England, with students and graduates expected to pick up the rest. In 2012-13, university attendees paid just over half (52 per cent) of the bill.'
