This petition was submitted during the 2019 to 2024 Parliament
Rejected petition To allow students who fail GCSE Maths & English to still have a student loan
Rejected on
To not pass the law that only gives student loans to those who have passed their GCSE English and Maths.
It’s unethical. Students are the becoming the future. The future to our economy. Without a student loan to support us, we simply can’t go to university. We can’t further ourselves. This new law that only allows loans to students who pass English and Maths GCSEs should not be passed. This will hinder a lot of young peoples aspirations / jobs / mental health
