Today in the Chamber, I asked the Secretary of State for Education what steps will be taken to support the many students who have been given a terrible deal by their Universities.
I am extremely sympathetic with the students and their relatives, many who have suffered through inadequate teaching and pastoral care. It is evident that some Universities seem to think that it is sufficient to meet the bare minimum of expectations - this is simply not good enough.
I am actively working on this at the moment - I am in discussions with Government Ministers, my colleagues and others to see what can be done about this.
