STOP THE GOVERMENT TAKING STUDENTS MONEY AWAY

To:  10 DOWNING STREET

Grants for students in England starting university next year will be cut because the government underestimated how many would be eligible for support.

The Department for Innovation, Universities and Skills has admitted it has a funding shortfall of £200m, after improving financial support this year.

The error means the upper limit to receive grants will now be reduced from a family income of £60,000 to £50,020.

Up to 40,000 prospective students will lose grants of up to £524 a year.

WE HAVE TO STOP THIS HAPPENING, THEY USED TAX PAYERS MONEY TO BAIL THE BANKS OUT OF THE CREDIT CRUNCH AND NOW THEY SAY THEY CANT FIX THIS, THIS IS WHAT TAX PAYERS MONEY WAS MEANT FOR. SIGN THIS PETITION IF YOU WANT THE GOVERMENT TO REVERSE THIS DESCISION AND AT LEAST KEEP THE SYSTEM AS IT CURRENTLY STANDS IF NOT IMPROVE IT.

Sincerely,

The Undersigned
