Today, the Committee of University Chairs (CUC) has launched its revised Code of Higher Education Governance for England, Northern Ireland and Wales. Developed through partnership across our sector - including with GuildHE - and beyond, this publication will strengthen governance across the higher education sector.
Commenting on the launch, GuildHE CEO Dr Brooke Storer-Church said:
GuildHE welcomes the CUC's work to produce a refreshed governance code in light of ongoing and emerging leadership demands. In today's volatile climate, HE institutions need robust tools to ensure strong governance while delivering high-quality education in increasingly fraught conditions.
This revised code makes clear that our agile and adaptive institutions are dedicated to operational excellence and continuous evolution. By pairing tools like these with the types of strategic, innovative growth cultures represented by GuildHE, our institutions deliver transparency and maximise value for the public investment received, for students and for wider society.
