Student Fees gone mad

Student Fees in the news again.

Why do they bother at all. In my day only the top 20% went to Uni. The rest got jobs or went onto apprenticeships etc. Everyone can't get a degree!

If they must all go to Uni, and I do believe in education, we need to address the 20% that leave school officially unable to read and write!!

Student fees – why ask students to pay back their “loan”? Education benefits everyone and the whole country not just the students. What ever the cost is for students just take it back from higher rate taxpayers by increasing tax, say by 1p on over 30K?
