Great comparative and cross-nation work by @HEPI_news @rstephenson123 this week - devolution, policy divergence & debates. Look out for @_policywise contribution later in the week.
It's Devolution Week at @HEPI_news. We've got blogs arguing for and against the devolution of higher education policy, a paper examining 25 years of devolution and, on Friday, a look ahead to regional devolution in England, and what that might mean for HEIs.
