WHAT HAPPENED

Cambridge University has announced that it will carry out an independent review of the appointment of Professor Jason Arday, according to a letter to staff written by Vice‑Chancellor Deborah Prentice. The decision follows concerns that have been raised about the post.

The university’s letter states that the review will be conducted independently, a point echoed by The Guardian, which reports that Cambridge has agreed to hold an inquiry into Arday’s appointment. The review comes after staff expressed worries about the selection process and after a whistleblower who alleged bullying won an employment tribunal.

The controversy surrounding Arday’s appointment is linked to broader debates on diversity, equity and inclusion at the university, as well as recent staff complaints about bullying and workplace conduct.

  • Cambridge will conduct an independent review of Jason Arday’s appointment, as announced by Vice‑Chancellor Deborah Prentice.
