Retrospective Change in Student Loans Terms and Conditions

Do not change the terms and conditions of student loans retrospectively as set out in 2012. The government promised to increase the threshold where earners start reaping their loans in line with the increase in average earnings. This increases the repayments that students expected and planned for when taking out the loans. And makes any future student loans unpredictable which would affect decisions regarding attending further education

Why is this important?

As above it will mean higher payments for students and could put off future students attending uni. Is it not illegal to change the terms and conditions of a loan after it has been taken out?
