In a newspaper interview, Vice Chancellor Glynis Breakwell has defended the enormous pay rises she has received in the last eight years. Using words that will inflame most people working in higher education she said “I’m worth it. I’ve been in the job a long time and you do tend to get increases over time in most jobs.” Most people working in HE have seen the value of their pay fall by 15% in the last eight years.
UCU is challenging the Vice Chancellor’s refusal to disclose her expenses, in line with disclosures made by most other Vice Chancellors, and published recently in the national UCU report Transparency at the Top.
For comparison, the Prime Minister earns a total of £149,440 a year, a figure which is within the top 1 per cent of earners.
