Intergenerational Foundation Report Highlights Rising Student Loan Burden in England

Intergenerational Foundation Report Highlights Rising Student Loan Burden in England

A recent report by the Intergenerational Foundation has brought attention to the increasing financial burden faced by students in England due to rising student loan costs. The report, authored by Toby Whelton, describes the current student loan system as a 'ticking timebomb' for future graduates. It highlights that the cost of university education has been increasingly shifted onto students, with the latest student loan package, known as plan 5, imposing harsher repayment terms than previous plans. The report notes that the government's contribution to higher education costs has significantly decreased, from covering 46% of a graduate's education in 2015-16 to just 8% now. This shift has resulted in graduates facing higher effective tax rates and increased lifetime repayment amounts.
