We read with interest the article that suggested growing rifts within and between the various interest groupings in Universities UK ("Rifts threaten unified voice", April 28).
But the article tells only part of the story. Outside UUK, the Standing Conference of Principals is the largest and one of the most long-established representative groups within the sector. Scop is an inclusive organisation and welcomes any higher education institution that sees some benefit in being part of our group.
