在英国政府宣布学费上调的命令公布以后,就有很多人对此发表了很多的看法。大多数人都认为这是在剥夺公民受教育的公平的机会。下面就是一位评论人对此发表的评论。
The decision to raise university tuition fees has raised an understandable furore. Although personally I am vehemently against any rise in tuition fees, the situation at least, does provide a space to reflect on global education.
Education in England is free and an ideology that, alongside free healthcare, is something that should be supported. However, its ubiquity has perhaps led us to take education for grantedat least up till now.
Social commentators have made comparisons with the American system of Tertiary education, but thoughts have not been cast further afield other than Western Lands, which perhaps is a mistake.
I am the first to admit that I have benefited from affordable education at a high standard; many are not so fortunate. One only has to look back decades ago in to my own family history to highlight this. Like many Asians of this generation our parents had to beg and borrow for an education. Due to the Apartheid regime in South Africa, My own father could not study dentistry and had to travel 26 days on a boat to do so. Although I often viewed it as an adventure, but he has been quick to point out that it was somewhat traumatic. It was a sacrifice that had to be made and provided the only opportunity to climb out of real poverty.
