In: Facilities & Equipment|Funding|ITOs|ITPs|Policy|Students|Teaching & Learning|TEO Sector Groups|Tertiary Education|Universities|Wananga
7 Nov 2011Policy & Management Loan Scheme Loses Money TV3 did a story at the weekend disclosing how the interest-free student loan scheme would fail if it was a business, although it must be said that giving away money at no cost has never been seen as a winning business strategy. I’m happy it’s being highlighted but the treatment is… Read Full Story.

In: Facilities & Equipment|Funding|ICT|ITPs|Policy|Politics|Students|TEO Sector Groups|Tertiary Education|Universities
19 Sep 2011ITPs to Manage Loans? RNZ covers an ITP proposal to manage student loans and allowances funds (and decide how they’re spent). Steven Joyce and the TEU thought it was interesting but NZUSA doesn’t like it. Meanwhile, the Mana Party is offering free education for all, but since they’ll only get about 1% of the vote, it’s unlikely to… Read Full Story.

16 Sep 2011High Fees Education at a Glance cherry-picking continues, with a series of stories in NZ having the 7th highest fees in the world (TV3, Yahoo, APNZ). Well, wouldn’t the fact that students getting a loan only pay half of the real costs of the fees have an impact on that ranking? Or would that be too complex to… Read Full Story.

31 Aug 2011King’s Education It’s a harrowing read, but the Coroner yesterday detailed the causes of death for 64 students, with 17 dying from the effect of fire (NZPA, RNZ). The sister of a dead King’s Education tutor said her boss asked her to breach the cordon after the September 2010 quake. A King’s Education director denied that, saying that… Read Full Story.
