Assessing the finances

A presentation by UCU senior research officer, Stephen Court, on how to do some basic analysis of institutional finances. The presentation gives some advice on tackling this subject, and presents two examples: City of Sunderland College, and UCL.

This could be of use in branches/local associations facing difficulties so as to be able to challenge what employers are saying.


UCU believes:

  • making teachers, lecturers, researchers and those who support them redundant is an act of academic vandalism at any time but is an obscenity during a recession
  • the government's specialisation agenda is destroying the diversity of post-16 education, cutting off access to education for thousands of potential learners
  • universities and colleges should be expanding provision to meet the needs of our communities and our country during a recession, not reducing it.

UCU wants to defend education.
We will do everything we can to protect jobs and courses.
