Closed Make tuition fees affordable for everyone to obtain higher education.

Closed on

We propose that the government reconsider its recently implemented policy to triple the value of the maximum annual university tuition. We believe that the new figure is too high and denies a certain proportion of the British population to a higher education and their future.
We would ask that the Department for Education review the
viability of a return to a reduced rate, allowing every student an equal opportunity to attend a university without being hindered by financial vulnerability.
