My reaction to the Government's White Paper on Post-16 Education and Skills. As it pertains to universities, it's a total botch that somehow manages to both raise fees and hack everybody off. The worst of all worlds, a bit like the rest of Labour's offer. Do have a read if you're interested. 👇
So I've been reading the Post-16 Education and Skills White Paper. There's some good things in there. But when it comes to universities there's very little to cheer. The situation is very tough and will get worse. The last chance to preserve what we've got has passed. Let me explain why. (1/?)

Very proud of our new paper in #JHOM on the politics involved data sharing. An
@arc-gm.bsky.social research project, we found
resistance to data reporting reflected hidden issues of power and trust between healthcare providers & managers.

When I was as young as 7 I think I understood - deep in my bones - a trade strategy like this was doomed. And all that required was watching Ferris Bueller's Day Off about 163 times.

Calling all mental health researchers! Do you need some #ElfHelp from The Mental Elf? 🌳🌤️🍄

This year we have been commissioned by many mental health research groups to help them disseminate their new research. We know how difficult it can be for researchers to get their work out there.
