flag UK raises tuition to £9,535, ties fees to quality, and boosts education and job access for youth.

flag The UK government will raise undergraduate tuition fees in line with inflation for the next two years, increasing the cap to £9,535 after a freeze since 2017. flag Future fee hikes will be tied to quality standards set by the Office for Students, requiring universities to meet benchmarks to charge full fees. flag Maintenance loans will rise annually with forecast inflation. flag New reforms include V-level vocational qualifications, a new Level 1 English and maths qualification for students with low GCSE results, and guaranteed further education placements for 16- and 17-year-olds without a post-16 plan. flag Young people on universal credit unemployed over 18 months will receive guaranteed job offers, and all secondary students will get at least two weeks of work experience. flag The government aims for two-thirds of young people to be in higher education, further education, or gold-standard apprenticeships by age 25, replacing the previous 50% university target. flag Maintenance grants will return for courses aligned with the industrial strategy, funded by a new levy on international students.
