Listen: Vice-Chancellor discusses Budget 2025 on the Wonkhe podcast

Harper Adams University Vice-Chancellor Professor Ken Sloan has examined this week’s Budget on a leading higher education podcast.

He joined the team at Wonkhe – the home of higher education debate – for this week’s edition of their popular show.

Over a wide-ranging, near hour-long discussion, Professor Sloan, alongside Wonkhe Editor Debbie McVitty, Deputy Editor David Kernohan, and Associate Editor and presenter Jim Dickinson, looked back at a momentous past seven days.

The quartet examined how university funding will be reshaped by the Budget and what it tells us about the government’s approach to public finances. They also considered international recruitment, the sustainability of cross-subsidy models, research and innovation and much, much more.
