Incredible bilateralism
Abstract
The bilateral system of higher education which the UK has had for many years has in the last few months acquired a new significance. The statements of the Secretary of State for Education and Science have been to the effect that a second, parallel and equal path towards higher education is to be opened up in the technical colleges. Under the aegis of the CNAA, certain colleges will provide courses leading to first and higher degrees, these degrees and the institutions providing them will have parity of esteem with the universities and they will remain in the second group to provide inspiration and leadership to others. In this way the creaming‐off of the best technical colleges into the university system will be stopped and the two systems can develop in harmony and parity side by side. (‘Equally distinguished but separate.’)
