Thousands Of Uni Students’ Degrees In Chaos | Good Morning Britain

Thousands of Uni students will be left in limbo this summer when they leave university without knowing whether they will get a 1st, 2:1 or 2:2. The University and Colleges Union (UCU) have boycotted the marking of final assessments and dissertations at 145 Universities leaving many students questioning how they can get their first job to start paying off their huge debts if they don’t know their grade. Thousands of students have signed open letters in campaign called #SettleTheDispute urging the university to go back to the negotiating table with the union. The UCU are taking action over issues of pay, workload and equality and intend to ballot over strike action in the Autumn. Last week thousands of University students asked London's High Court to give the go-ahead to a mass lawsuit against University College London (UCL) over disruption to their studies caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and strikes. More than 3,000 current and former students – who paid at least 9,250 pounds a year – are suing UCL for breach of contract, in a case which could be followed by similar litigation against other British universities.
