Bin the T.P.

Goldsmiths management have announced ‘The Transformation Programme,’ plans to make over 25% of academic staff redundant as part of the second restructure in as many years. This is the biggest assault on jobs at any UK university in recent years. Analysts who have seen the information provided by management say there is no financial imperative for the cuts, calling the move a highly risky strategy. A quarter of academic jobs to be cut at Goldsmiths. Modules and degree programmes ‘deleted.’ This threatens not just the future of Higher Education, but Britain’s global reputation as a centre of artistic excellence. We are currently balloting for a mandate to action to fight this unprecedented attack.
