No it isn't.People don't pay back benefits.
We need graduates to teach our children but this system is going to make a lot of bright youngsters discount it as a choice of profession.
If a middle of the road middle class family having two or more children wanting to go to university are going to find themselves stretched just to find the contributions that they are expect to pay towards tuition fees, then it may well come to the point that some will be having to choose which of those 2 or3 can actually go to university.
Yes the poorer students will be provided for(but many will choose not to be saddled with any debt at all) and the better off will just pay up front and not bother with loans..
This will be a very divisive system AND at the end of the day it may well be that the loans will not be paid off any quicker than they currently are if at all.
