Rejected petition Cancel University fees, or reduction over 40%. Priority to 2020/21 and onwards.
Have 2020/21 University tuition fees cancelled, and debt removed. Or a reduction of fees over 40%, this should be continuous during the COVID-19 pandemic. Once over this should be significant research and change of law about Universities rising prices over the years, including accommodation prices.
More details
The Government is held liable for students suffering, as they encouraged Universities to welcome students back, with the promise of blended learning of face to face and online teaching. Majority of students only had online teaching, and are now trapped into £9k debt, for a low quality education they did not expect nor want. Students are also, forced to pay for a expensive accommodation they are not living in. Students are expected to do degree online they should pay the same which is about £2.5k
