Why does the government want to fill the nation with undergraduates?
Nonsense politicising AGAIN. “removing the cap on aspiration”. What utter nonsense from the Department of Education and Skills in the run up to an election.
Who’s going to pay?
We’ll be creating a graduate population with crippling debt and questionable qualifications.
Let’s not forget that students don’t feature on unemployment figures. The government knows that private providers can already smell the money.
Very convenient that it makes them look good and costs them little.
Short-termist nonsense from government as ever.
Does nobody in these departments ever start a meeting by considering what would be best for these human beings who they are pushing to becoming undergraduates? Vocational training perhaps? Employment?
