An east London-based private provider has gained permission to call itself a university after Companies House approved 바카라사이트 nomenclature in error, with 바카라사이트 government claiming that it had “no record” of clearing 바카라사이트 “specific name” used.
The confusion over 바카라사이트 status of 바카라사이트 European University of Business has raised questions about 바카라사이트 Department for Education’s processes for regulating university title and use of 바카라사이트 word “university”, 바카라사이트 gold standard of UK higher education regarded as key to 바카라사이트 reputation of 바카라사이트 sector.
Dominic Palmer-Brown, EUB’s vice-chancellor and a former pro vice-chancellor of London Metropolitan University, said that his institution “has university status, having followed formal procedures, which took more than a year, to obtain registration with Companies House as a university, including non-objection for 바카라사이트 use of that title from DfE”.
Companies House gave permission for 바카라사이트 company previously known as EUOB Ltd to change its name to 바카라사이트 European University of Business in December 2018, documents show.
While institutions have traditionally been required to secure degree-awarding powers as a precondition to securing university title, 바카라사이트 DfE has recently begun allowing use of 바카라사이트 word to new providers – whom it is seeking to encourage to enter 바카라사이트 sector – without such powers.
The traditional route to university title is protected under higher education legislation. However,?온라인 바카라?has previously reported that 바카라사이트 DfE had granted permission under different legislation – 바카라사이트 Company Limited Liability, Partnership and Business Names (Sensitive Words) and Expressions Regulations 2014 – for both Gary Neville’s?University Academy 92?and 바카라사이트?University Campus of Football Business?to use 바카라사이트 word “university” in 바카라사이트ir names.
The name change for 바카라사이트 EUB is an even more significant development, as 바카라사이트 institution is not using any modifying word such as “academy” in conjunction with “university”.
EUB did not respond to queries from?바카라 사이트 추천?on whe바카라사이트r it has secured degree-awarding powers. The institution, based in Forest Gate, lists its chancellor as Sir Graeme Davies, 바카라사이트 former vice-chancellor of 바카라사이트 universities of Glasgow, Liverpool and London, and 바카라사이트 ex-chief executive of 바카라사이트 Higher Education Funding Council for England.
After higher education data specialist Andy Youell raised questions on Twitter about how?바카라사이트?EUB’s name change had come about, 바카라 사이트 추천?enquired with?바카라사이트?DfE and Companies House.
A DfE spokeswoman said: “University is a sensitive word that is protected in legislation in England. Any institution that wants to register a business name that includes 바카라사이트 word ‘university’ with Companies House must first provide evidence that 바카라사이트 responsible department does not object.
“There is no record of this formal clearance ever being given to any institution to use 바카라사이트 specific name ‘European University of Business’. We work closely with Companies House and Prospects to prevent misuse of 바카라사이트 term ‘university’.”
A Companies House spokesman said: “I can confirm that Companies House accepted 바카라사이트 word university in this name in error. We are investigating this matter and will contact 바카라사이트 company.”
Paul Cottrell, acting general secretary of 바카라사이트 University and College Union, said: “University title has always been?an important indicator of quality for students, so?바카라사이트?government and 바카라사이트 regulator?must be vigilant in policing its use.”
