Open Introduce a cap on Postgraduate Educational Courses

Created by Georgina Smiles
Closes on

We believe that the financial structure postgraduate education courses should match that of undergraduate courses to ensure that there is a maximum limit that can be charged for a course. We are advocating introducing a cap on UK higher education master's courses.

Some jobs are already favouring candidates with further levels of educational attainment, i.e. those who are able to afford the extortionate fees of Master's/PhD programme. We believe not only should higher levels of education be encouraged nonetheless, but people should not be excluded from this opportunity as a result of their financial situation.
