National Update
It is going to be a difficult few years for the education sector, with massive funding cuts being made. The impact that this is going to have on the student experience is not yet known. Due to the large cuts we are seeing nationally there have been numerous course closures and redundancies around the country. If that is not bad enough then in the future we may be seeing the closure of entire Universities.
