In the news is the request from many Universities for higher fees for students, meaning higher debt for graduates and putting off many students from studying.
At our spring conference the weekend before last the Liberal Democrats reaffirmed our commitment to scrapping tuition fees and providing realistic support for students.
Many students leave university with debts over £30,000. This does put off students from many backgrounds. Further the possibility of different fees for different universities could see some students choosing on price rather than on the correct course for them.
All Universities should be accessible by the brightest students not the richest.
