    Good for Scottish students..not so much for English, Welsh etc....

    I seen on the news that Part Time courses will also be free of charge now, I believe there is a cost involved at the moment.

    Great news. My son gets £960 this year but will get £4500 next! It is a real struggle trying to manage on £960 a year even with parental help.

    I've always thought that it's all very well paying no fees but it's not much help when you don't have enough to live on.
