Petition Government scholarships to assist manufacturing industries.
More details
Students with suitable A level results should be offered free places at University to encourage high quality students to study those subjects such as Engineering, IT. Biotechnology. Electronics and any others for which British industry needs highly qualified graduates. We must greatly increase this country's manufacturing ability and thus reduce imports and increase exports.
We desperately need more top graduates in our manufacturing industries.
£250 million a year could send 25,000 top students each year to University free of fees and would encourage very many to study these essential subject free of the worry of finishing with large debts.
