We undervalue our engineers , builders , mechanics, those who we rely on.
Instead we have a generation of Media Studies etc who are no use at all in the real world.
Literally thousands of Environmental Studies Graduates expecting to start as an EHO on £30k a year.
They are sadly disappointed, no use or ornament.
A Sports Science Graduate, expecting to find a job here in Prees, no chance.
We have gone sadly wrong.
We should not be charging to train in jobs which we need, just go back to the old system.
I was not charged, I simply had to agree to work for years to pay it off.

Re: Nhs
I see no sense in Media studies at university , other than to bring in MONEY. some unis dont even offer them . There are so many well paid jobs out in the wide world that do not need a degree. I bet many of those that go to Uni. have no idea what they want to do ,its just an excuse for them to have a good time. I DO NOT include all students in that , but there are more than I think we would like to know13-12-2017, 06:16 PM

'Social Studies' used to be the one that everyone joked about. Like the graffiti above a toilet roll in the student lavatories:
"Social Studies degrees. Please take one."

Now, kids are leaving with a string of the much easier ones and the universities, being more interested in financial income than abilities, welcome them with open arms.
