Tracing the global-local dimensions of UK higher education Gareth Parry University of Sheffield

Outline Project 3.1: Alternative, emerging and cross- border UK provision, and its relationship with mainstream HE 1.Research questions + debates 2.UK HE: its overlapping and intersecting zones 3.Design: phases + methods 4.Alternative provision: the case of colleges CI: Professor Gareth Parry RA: Dr Steve Hunt

A (deceptively) simple question How should the map of UK HE be drawn to comprehend its global-local dimensions? What forms are taken by ‘alternative’ provision? What are its relationships to ‘mainstream’ provision? With what implications for the distribution and mobility of students?

Policy-theory debates, old + new 1.the forms of diversity appropriate to mass and universal access 2.the relationship of system structures to levels and patterns of social inequality 3.the subversion of systems and rise of global universities

‘Mainstream’ Core territory: a designated sector of publicly funded HE institutions dominated by large multifaculty multipurpose universities taking the bulk of demand (domestic + international) ‘a controlled reputational range’ (Watson)

‘Alternative’ Provision leading to HE qualifications and credits awarded by UK authorities offered: 1.offshore, by partner institutions or branch campuses or distance/online providers 2.by privately funded providers 3.by further education colleges

No comprehensive mapping Why? hidden history (private + distance) written out (college) regulatory reach (private) separate (discordant and uneven) reporting clumsy (standard) categories

Tracing global-local dimensions Why? missing numbers + activities policy understanding: system-institution configurations and dynamics base for academic inquiry (comparative and conceptual) change thinking

Three distributed zones Total UK HE = 3,020,000+ CollegePrivate Offshore 2,300,000 [160 HEIs] 350,000+ [distance, collaborative, branch campus] 210,000 [290 FECs] 160,000+ [670+ providers]

Three zones, shared features dependency (on ‘mainstream’) heterogeneity (courses, students, modes) specificity (subjects, levels, settings) complexity (forms, relations) volatility (conditions, markets)

Phases and methods I Literature reviews II Survey of private providers III Analysis of administrative datasets IV Case studies

Colleges (England): forms locally distributed (280+ colleges) mixed-sector (HE always a minority) usually small pockets (vocational + work- focused) largely sub-bachelor (UG + higher-level) mainly part-time (60%) domestic

Colleges (England): relations competitive + collaborative (especially with post-1992 universities) validation by individual universities and examination/awarding bodies multiple funding routes: direct, indirect (with 60+ HE institutions), full-cost

Colleges (England): policies localisation  diversification  engagement (employer)  participation (wider)  progression  expansion 
