University Fees
Are the government about to break their manifesto pledge not to increase fees for students? If we're going to move to American style charging system then surely we should give parents enough time to save for their child's education rather than a step increase that will push them further into debt?

Hi PaulYukochan,
The UCL plan is obviously the most extreme proposed fee rise, but it seems that most Universities are looking for more funding.
The 'word on the street' is that the capped amount will rise from �1100, perhaps beginning a year on year rise. Of course, the means tested subsidy will still remain, but any substantial rise will affect a large number of 'bordeline support' families.
