Coalition 2010
ULU is working alongside the NUS to highlight the growing marketisation of Higher Education. Over the next year ULU will be developing a London-wide long term strategy about how to combat the possible lifting of the cap of fees in 2010.
A removal on the cap would deter students, particularly those from poorer and less traditional backgrounds from attending university. We must act now to combat the increased and ongoing transfer of education costs onto the individual.
This year will see the first generation of students under the top-up fees system and it is important to remind those in power of the mounting pressures of going into Higher Education, with student debt being a major concern.
The National Demo on Sunday 29th October was only the first step in the mission to enusre the cap of £3,000 is not lifted in 2010 and that the true answer for Higher Education is scrapping the fees system and provide free education for all.
