I am a graduate so value education but now we've seen that so many universities will be charging £9k a year that it will make todays pupils think that a degree just isn't worth the cost?
I know it doesn't have to be paid back until they are earning £21k or thereabouts but they are looking at 20 odd years of debt, more for some and no option to pay it off early if they get a windfall.
Add that to so many graduates not in graduate jobs and others out of work.
AIBU to think we are going to go back to the bad old days when university access won't be based on how smart you are but how much money your parents have?
