Hepi gives advice to entrepreneurial university leaders, and the OfS is getting back to businessWe don’t know about you but when Playbook is asked to imagine entrepreneurial educational leaders, we think of Alastair Sim as Millicent Fritton, the headmistress in The Belles of St Trinian’s, asking George Cole’s Flash Harry to put what remains of the school budget on a horse in order to save the ailing institution—it wins thanks to the intervention of the riotous fourth form.

Do we now know what it looks like when a university fails? “Oh, university o’er the silvery Tay, Thursday will be a very sad day. When an external review will say, how 300 jobs were washed away. It will ask can the university survive, in the year of our Lord 2025?”This, perhaps, is how the city’s greatest poet William McGonagall might have described the week ahead for the University of Dundee.

The chancellor will unveil the results of Labour’s spending review this afternoonIt’s a bit like Christmas, but only if you are one of the kids who has been naughty rather than nice. The results of the Labour government’s first Comprehensive Spending Review will be known later today and are being treated with a degree of anxiety by some. We know the outcome for science. The £86 billion budget settlement has been trailed since the weekend as the good news centrepiece of the whole affair.

Keeping an eye on Scottish politics and a Hepi report on universities in a boxLet’s begin today at the home of some famous academicals—Hamilton. Or, more precisely, at the Hamilton, Larkhall and Stonehouse by-election to the Scottish parliament. Readers outside Scotland might think this is a bit niche, even for Playbook. Especially given there is no university in the constituency—although South Lanarkshire College does offer degrees.
