Tutorials 'hit by staffing cuts'
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/education/6132108.stm
Rising student numbers and staffing cuts mean some undergraduates are receiving less academic support, the education quality watchdog has claimed.
A couple of weeks ago I posted about this http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/education/6099768.stmand how it was reported.
Now I'm not going to debate (for once) the accuracy or bias which may have influenced this survey all I want to know is why one warrants "says", but the second gets the caveat "claims".
Does this mean that one less reliable that the other? Was the methodology open to question? Are the QAA not to be trusted?
