Contributing sentiments towards policy:

54% : In higher education, there are many people who would like to see Labour scrap tuition fees altogether.
49% : A panel I chaired in 2019 proposed freezing universities' income per student until 2023, then increasing it in line with inflation and changing the mix between student fees and the government grant that is paid directly to higher education institutions.
37% : More than a third of higher education institutions are running at a loss, a handful are at risk of government bailout and some have had to shed staff and courses.
