Tuition fees in the U.K. were first imposed in 1998 and required students to pay up to £1,000 a year for tuition. England increased the fees to £3,000 a year in 2004 and in 2012 64 universities announced their intention to charge the full £9,000 allowed by the government, with the remaining 59 all charging at least £6,000. Scotland currently does not charge any tuition fees. Northern Ireland, Wales and Ireland currently impose a cap on their tuition fees of £3,000 a year.

Stem subjects and certain literature subjects should be covered by the governments and certain ones should be covered in the aim of promoting teachers
@9J86X281yr1Y
No, and tuition fees should be set by the market without any government intervention, funding or subsidy.
@9PRDYF910mos10MO
Yes but massively reduce the size of the university sector so we only have elite academic institutions
@9PMZT8X10mos10MO
STEM subjects should be free and with a grant. Non-STEM subjects should have tuition fees and no grant.
@9LKM9DY12mos12MO
Free for subjects like medical or science where we want the best regardless of income. other degrees should be paid for and improve the quality of subjects
@9KV49C91yr1Y
They should be reduced and everyone should pay something back towards them no matter what their income.
