Petition Barriers to Further Education : Scrap the Bus Pass Charge

More details

We want the government to scrap the charge of a bus pass for those wanting to go to sixth form or college. This will affect young people aged between 16 and 19 who want to further their education. This is just one more penalisation at a time with rising university fees and the abolition of EMA.Education should be for all, not just those who can afford it.
