The tertiary sector in Scotland, like much of Scotland’s service sector has gone into crisis as a consequence of the Covid 19 outbreak.
A Scottish Funding Council ( SFC) paper published in April showed that universities face operating deficits of between £383 million and £651 million in academic year 2020-21 alone. The SFC also said that the college sector faces significant challenges as a result of loss in income and increased costs.
