Andrea Jenkyns appeared poised to stay on as higher education minister in the Westminster government, after being reappointed to the Department for Education.

Ms Jenkyns had been widely regarded as a caretaker in the post after being appointed to succeed Michelle Donelan amid the death throes of Boris Johnson’s administration.
