Yes

If the UK expects the number of skilled workers to rise, unversity fees need to be lowered. Think about it, if there are going to be millions of young people in the state sector, for whom paying tens of thousands in university fees isn't viable, isn't there a massive loss in potential for the country?

Education is the key to personal, social and economic growth. Working class families are more financially risk averse and especially to 50k + of debt! Thus tuition fees impose a filter based on class, where working class people feel they cannot take the opportunity to attend university as freely as those from affluent families. Creating a system which imposes class-based opportunity differences in higher education, even indirectly, has to be abolished.

Many skilled and intelligent people with masses of potential cannot afford tuition fees purely down to the cost of living, plus paying off student debt afterwards. Free tuition fees would balance out the income inequality over generations

Free tuition allows people who may not have had the same opportunities as a middle to upper class people to get a better education so they have a better chance of getting a better paying job so they can help themself and their family live a better more fore-filling life

The majority of students who pay in order to receive higher education are stuck paying off their education for their rest of their lives, this is also without extra loans that are normally heavily required in order for students to be able to attend university.

Education should be free and accessible to all students as this will discourage many future workers for the UK which will have an impact on our country's economic and social growth. It creates a class system in the UK and many students often face situations where they believe they did not receive the quality of teaching that was needed for the money they had given.

knowledge is not something that should cost money, information should be a free resource. with the fact that most jobs in the modern world now require people to have some from of degree if they want to have a chance at being payed well it is almost becoming a necessity to have a degree which forces the poorer people in the country to plunge themselves further into debt.

Education should be free and accessible to all people.. tuition fees can deter some people who worry about paying it back!!!

Abolishing tuition fees would make the intelligence of the general public go up and therefore the public would be able to make more informed decisions.

in scotland 41.4% go university as there is no tuition fees and only 24.7% of england go uni. meaning many people refused to go university due to the cost

Primary school is free
Secondary school is free
College is free
Jobs now more often than not require a degree
So why isn't university free

Looking at a country like Sweden, where they pay young people to attend university; their people are more likely to be incentivised to take on further education. Further study isn’t always the answer but for all the people wanting it, surely they should get in based on their capability and exam results rather than be stuck behind a pay wall? And upon completing a degree, the opportunities that open up are greater than for one who has just finished high school, this would benefit a lot more people should they not need to pay for their education.

Scandinavian countries have free, education, higher skilled workforce, with higher taxes resulting in increased funding for public services and care. And have the highest rating for happiness.

They should be removed as it is difficult for people who are working class to pay for tuition fees and university fees as well.

Every tuition costs thousands for each student and it is unfair on the parents, students or carers. This hefty price is too sharp for a time like this and it limits the ability to buy necessary items since the money people earn just go straight to their unfair education price.

Most students leave university with very large debts and having to pay that back takes a long time and stops some people from making much money to support themselves financially.

With the struggle of payment for Tuition lessened students who could not afford college could now go. A student may succeed academically, but without extreme funds, it is nearly impossible to go to college for a stable price.

If you look at this you will see that down the page it shows from 1998-2005 tuition fees were capped at £1,000. At least Scotland is trying by lowering the costs for their own Students thanks to the SNP.

Value of money is decreasing and tuition hence is increasing. It would cost several times more than what was the initial price or the price it was years ago because of this. It would mean those older students came out for cheaper than the new which is not equal.

i cant be arsed but lots of underprivallaged families cant support sending their kids to uni increasing the UK's brain drain

We need more skilled workers why should people have to pay. More people being educated should be a good thing that will increase the economy.

At the end of the day this comes down to money. However I don't see how this can be free in the devolved nations and not in England.

University students are working really hard to achieve their goal, it’s so much work, and we talk about mental health in this country a lot, but with all the work university students have to do on top of all the tuition fees, it will most likely affect their mental health.

The spending on education is dropping and we are falling behind cause of our students being unable to afford fees

Young people are being discouraged from applying to high-end universities on the basis of finance, which makes little economic sense as potentially productive individuals are being barred from contribution to Britain's economy and thus the gains from fees are far outweighed by the opportunity cost.

86% of MPs attended university, most of which probably lived in england and therefore had to pay for it, So in a way they bought their way into power, aristocrats.

Let’s. Take 9500 as a tuition fee for an year
500-600 is your rent per month
200 food per month(2400 per year)
200 clothes per month (2400 per year)
So you can see you need a extremely good job.

If fees didn't exist, more people would go to university and would have better skills and opportunities for the rest of their life

The majority of students who pay in order to receive higher education are stuck paying off their education for their rest of their lives, this is also without extra loans that are normally heavily required in order for students to be able to attend university.

Lack of education leads to an increase in poverty. This is a vicious cycle that can only be broken if everyone has the same opportunities in life.

Government raised fees from £3,000 to £9,000 which cut off. In 2017, 17% of 18 year olds who received FSM went into HE, compared to 34% of non-FSM pupils. So non-FSM pupils were twice as likely to enter higher education as those receiving FSM.

The Institute of Fiscal Studies has analysed government figures to find that 43% of people are not paying any income tax.

86% of UK MPs are university educated, so the opportunity to become a politian must be available to people from all sorts of backgrounds.

The Government expects that around 27% of full-time undergraduates starting in 2022/23 will repay them in full.

Tuition fees are too expensive just for someone to get higher education, education is how money is made

Many skilled and intelligent people with masses of potential cannot afford tuition fees purely down to the cost of living, plus paying off student debt afterwards. Free tuition fees would balance out the income inequality over generations.

A large amount if people chose a different career oathway because they can't afford the tuition fees

Students should be focusing on their academically studies instead on thinking on how and where to get their money from, this also strains their parents aswell

Students need a place to live when going to uni or colleges if they are from far away cities or countys

I came from a poor working-class family in the North of England. I became the first person from my family to get a degree, for which I studied long hours and worked very hard to get excellent results. I had a grant to live on, luxury it wasn't but I learned careful budgeting skills and learned also what was important.
I do not believe in getting into debt, it is the road to ruin. I would have left university with little money upon which I could live and I would be more concerned about being stuck with debt than building a career and looking to the future. The country is far too heavily…  Read more in debt anyway, unsecured debt is a huge mountain blocking economic development and using consumer spending to boost the economy is slowed by the constant need to compensate for the previous living upon future income. A clean slate and you can start planning for the future and the economy will move forward far more quickly.

if everyone was given free tuition, more people would go to unis, more people would get better jobs, the economy would be more full then it ever was

Access to the university should be available to all, regardless of their ability to pay or not. As long as the student is willing to learn and contribute to society, it should be free.
