EARLIER this month, pupils across Scotland received their grades which determine their next steps after leaving school.
If our students are not able to access accommodation and face homelessness due to unaffordable rent, then this fantastic policy of free tuition is almost wasted as it does not reach those who arguably need it most.
This is especially difficult as when is there time to complete assignments? When is there time to visit family? I was turned away from job interviews as I was not willing to work every holiday, wanting to have at least some time to spend with my family and elderly grandparents. International students already pay large tuition fees meaning unaffordable and scarce student accommodation may put many off making the journey to our nation.
Scotland was previously known for its world-class education system. In the 16th century, there was even a time when Aberdeenshire had three universities – two in Aberdeen and one in Fraserburgh – when England only had two. Independence will allow us to, once again, have full control over all aspects of our nation, including education.
