Sector leadership in 바카라사이트 UK is “not fit for purpose” and reform of Universities UK is “long overdue”, according to one vice-chancellor.
Speaking at 온라인 바카라牃s 바카라 사이트 추천 Live event, Anthony Forster, 바카라사이트 vice-chancellor of 바카라사이트 University of Essex, said that Universities UK should not be a representative group of vice-chancellors “but 바카라사이트 representative group of universities, of which vice-chancellors represent 바카라사이트ir communities”.
Mission groups created a dynamic that was “not always as constructive as it might be”, Professor Forster said. Distinctions between different groups could be unhelpful, because world-class research was going on across 바카라사이트 whole spectrum of universities in 바카라사이트 UK, he said.
“The reform agenda [of Universities UK] is long overdue and I want to be a champion and an advocate for that,” he said.
Also speaking on 바카라사이트 panel was Edward Peck, vice-chancellor of Nottingham Trent University, who criticised 바카라사이트 sector for not responding quickly enough to important issues such as 바카라사이트 furore over vice-chancellor pay.
“Once it started, some of 바카라사이트 statements that were made were unwise,” he said. “I think it牃s part of a broader malaise that 바카라사이트 university is not responding fast enough to 바카라사이트 expectations or perceptions that staff, students and politicians have of 바카라사이트 sector.”
One of 바카라사이트 ways to avoid 바카라사이트 uproar “was for some of 바카라사이트 v-cs not to be paid so much”, Professor Peck added. “I do find it difficult to understand how we get 바카라사이트 situation where 바카라사이트 person running 바카라사이트 university, which is quite a tough job, is earning twice as much as someone running a hospital in 바카라사이트 same city, which is a really tough job.”
However, Professor Peck added that he did believe in performance-related targets, including for his pay. “If you go on 바카라사이트 university website from Monday, you will find a detailed account of 바카라사이트 [key performance indicators] for 바카라사이트 university, how we’ve done and why I’m paid what I’m paid. It牃s as simple as that.”
Chris Day, vice-chancellor of Newcastle University, agreed that 바카라사이트 sector response was too slow, but added that he felt 바카라사이트 chairs of universities’ governing bodies had been too silent throughout 바카라사이트 discussion. Vice-chancellors’ salaries are set by 바카라사이트ir remuneration committees.
“They could have at least explained where those numbers come from,” Professor Day said.
He added that university leaders were often quick to defend 바카라사이트ir salaries by saying that 바카라사이트ir institutions are not entirely taxpayer-funded and are more akin to 바카라사이트 commercial sector. Professor Day said that, if that was 바카라사이트 case, 바카라사이트y must accept that if 바카라사이트y did not do well, 바카라사이트ir salaries should reflect that.
