Rejected petition Fund the reduction of university tuition fees 2020/21 due to COVID-19 impact

Reduce university tuition fees 2020/21 by a proportion to recognise the diminished experience of students due to COVID-19 distanced learning.

More details

Students studying practical courses such as Performing Arts are at a disadvantage, as lessons simply cannot be delivered to an equal standard as face-to-face learning, with some subjects undeliverable. Full fees imply a holistic interactive experience, which unfortunately is now significantly reduced. Therefore, it is reasonable to expect a proportionally reduced tuition fee, which acknowledges the limitations of course delivery and the diminished student experience.
