Speaker Geeks! discussion

An education is priceless, it gives you chance to explore many possibilities in life, many that you would never consider or be able to.

In the U.K people don't pay for their education unless its through tax. Some people pay for a better education by going to a private school. When it comes to university everyone will pay but people can get government grants and bursaries from the university to have it at less of a price. Also in the U.K university costs a lot, it costs £21000 on average for the education. People often pay this back when the start work, i think it is a small amount taken off after tax until you've payed for it (Rich people can pay it at once).

In my view education should cost as little as possible, and I like the way people can pay it back once they are earning, yes it means they are not as rich but it is fair that they pay for it.

It should be free so every one has access to it

it should be free.

Education should be free. That's why we have so many dumb asses in our country. They haven't been to high school or collage so they don't know sh¡t

One of my schools chemistry teachers (he knows what he teaches) worked at McDonalds before he did his PGCE (teaching degree). He doesnt even have a chemistry degree!
