Powell is hopeless here but that's a reflection of the fact that DfE has never had any idea what HE is for.

Schools? Yes, day jails for children and teaching literacy and numeracy.

FE? Training workers.

HE? Not a clue.
'University leaders should accept that their own poor decision-making contributed to mass job losses in UK academia rather than simply blaming government policy, education secretary Lucy Powell has said.'

Presumably whilst waving the international study levy and SPG grant reductions aloft.
Powell: university leaders should accept blame for financial woes
Vice-chancellors should take responsibility for mismanagement rather than always blaming government policies, says education secretary
