There’s now a record number of providers on the OfS register. Laine Theatre Arts join quite a number of providers offering musical theatre degrees. As an ‘approved’ provider Laine doesn’t have a fee limit - so charges £21829.50 per academic year (students can access a £6,000 loan).

Hi. I'm sharing a pre-print by @anavaldi.bsky.social and me that is gaining traction @ssrn.bsky.social.
Critical minerals policies are generating pressures to create 'technological peripheries' in both the South and North. We look at Chile and Spain.

Happy to have this paper out in HE. Do have a look if you are interested in the relationship between public and private higher education, and how to reverse outsourcing once it has happened.
