We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to reinstate support funding given to the Higher Education Funding Council for England (HEFCE). More details
Submitted by Paul Weaver – Deadline to sign up by: 10 November 2007 – Signatures: 3,489
for universities offering courses to students taking equal or lower qualifications than they currently hold. We believe to remove all such funding will remove a vital source of retraining where the skills base has changed over the years and mean only the personally better funded students will have a chance to retrain. We also believe that this sudden funding change will be harmful to universities which are based around the ethos of retraining or continuing skill updates and should be reviewed under the premise of Life Long Learning.
