Refund student loans for students who studied during the Covid pandemic

Closed 38 signatures

What the petition asks

During the Covid Pandemic, my degree was online and many classes were cancelled. Recorded sessions from previous years were used and there was little dialogue or feedback from lecturers, and no time to discuss grades.
Many universities were closed, and many teachers were furloughed and used pre-recorded sessions. I believe the Government should refund the 3 years of study for university students who studied during the Covid Pandemic as I believe quality of education during this time was poor.
