Cable Forum - View Single Post - Tuition fees may be uncapped (and other changes)

It's all linked to the silly idea of getting 50% into university rather than 3-4 % and then a number to poly and to colleges and others direct to work for apprenticeships and similar.

Now we are stuck as many places have expanded to accommodate the extras and can't now go back to the smaller numbers when I went (early mid 80's).

The nation can't afford that number so the payment has to come from somewhere and the cost keeps going up.

Maybe more students need to do VSO or similar after graduating so never earn enough to pay back?
