Synopsis

This is an indictment of government education policy presenting an alternative strategy for maintaining Britain's universities. Dame Warnock, Mistress of Girton College, Cambridge, provides an informed critique of current DES/Government orthodoxy, that is, the insistence on both higher standards and greater economic efficiency and contends that Britain's higher education system will be eroded if universities are made to run themselves like commercial companies. She speaks out against cuts in government subsidies to university research work and is in favour of nourishing "intellectual free enterprise". The author also wrote " What Must we Teach?", "Education - A Way Forward" and "A Common Policy For Education".
