What the petition asks
To compensate the university students paying £9,000 a year to get a degree who are affected by the teacher strikes against the pay and working conditions within their jobs. The government must either resolve this issue with the university’s or compensate the students affected by the situation caused
University students across the UK are paying £9,000 a year to the government to receive a full education. However due to teacher strikes caused by the governments inability to resolve the issues lecturer’s face at work, the students miss out on key content and teaching. This means that they are having to pay for less than half of the education they should be receiving, leaving them struggling to pass their courses and having to teach themselves. This is not what going to university should be.
