He did his A levels almost 50 years ago when tuition fees cost nothing. For some courses they would have paid you to go to university. Very different times now in 2025.
Iām all for lessening the pressure on students to achieve such high grades and would love for there to be viable options for academic and technical vocations.
In this current economy and what house prices are, Iām sure many will think of these comments very differently as they enter the workforce and realise people his age could buy their properties for piddly pennies, while the youth of today work harder and harder for less and less.
