British students 'are least hard-working in Europe' - by Richard Gardner
Britain is in danger of losing its reputation for providing a world-class university education because its students work far fewer hours than students in the rest of Europe, a report published today warns. Students on media studies courses are the least hard-working, spending less than 20 hours a week on their work, the report says, adding that women tend to work harder than men. The report also shows that more than a quarter of the overseas students at all UK universities say they are getting "poor" value for money on their courses, possibly as a result of receiving far less tuition than their counterparts on the Continent, according to the report's authors.
