Further education cuts would be 'personal and public tragedy' says Unison leader ahead of Plymouth protest. Comments (0) CUTS to further education would be a “personal and public tragedy” and would shut the door on those looking to improve their lives, according to a union official. Hundreds of people from across the South West are expected to join protests in the city centre on Saturday against funding cuts to further education and adult learning. The ‘Love FE’ rally is being organised by the University and College Union (UCU), supported by City College Plymouth.
Protestors will gather to listen to speeches at the piazza from noon, before setting off on a march to City College at 1.30pm. Simon Wintle, area organiser for Unison, said: “Cuts to further education funding of this magnitude will be a personal and public tragedy. “It will result in countless individuals, of many and varied backgrounds, being denied opportunities to gain qualifications and skills essential for today’s workplaces.
“Plymouth cannot afford to lose these essential courses.” IfL calls for government's FE workforce strategy to be republished. Boston College - College of Further Education.
