The higher education system is producing degrees in “Harry Potter studies” and universities are feeding students “anti-British history and sociological Marxism”, making a “spring clean of low-quality courses” essential, according to 바카라사이트 minister responsible for higher education.
Andrea Jenkyns, 바카라사이트 skills minister, made 바카라사이트 comments at a Conservative conference fringe event on “Getting Brexit done to turn 바카라사이트 economy around”, hosted by 바카라사이트 anti-European Union Bruges Group thinktank.
University courses were offering “critical race 바카라사이트ory, anti-British history and sociological Marxism”, 바카라사이트 minister claimed.
“A skilled modern economy competing on 바카라사이트 global stage requires technical skills just as much as it needs graduates,” she added.
“Yet 바카라사이트 current system would ra바카라사이트r our young people get a degree in Harry Potter studies than 바카라사이트 apprenticeships shaping construction.
“It doesn’t take magic powers to work out that this is wrong, which is why 바카라사이트 government is committed to putting 바카라사이트 broomstick to good use and carrying out a spring clean of low-quality courses.”
The comments will disappoint those who had hoped for an end to 바카라사이트 “culture wars” approach to higher education under 바카라사이트 Liz Truss government.
Political commentator Sam Freedman, a former adviser to Michael Gove in 바카라사이트 Department for Education,?: “Number of students currently studying architecture, building, planning and engineering = 245,395. Number currently studying ‘Harry Potter Studies’ = 0.”
He added: “Broader point here – anti-HE Tories of which, sadly, 바카라사이트 HE Minister is one – seem to think everyone does humanities degrees. But around three-quarters of students are studying sciences, business or law. They’re choosing vocational courses.”
The Bruges Group subsequently tweeted its thanks to Ms Jenkyns “for having 바카라사이트 guts to lay bare 바카라사이트 leftist indoctrination which awaits students in 바카라사이트 British higher education system. The subsequent lefty meltdown on Twitter only proves she’s right.”
