Verb (abbreviation of verb) education welfare

The British government's education fund supports all students to receive free education, including free distribution of books and all learning tools. The Ministry of Education provides free milk to students in special schools such as deaf-mute and students under 7 years old in other schools every day.

Schools generally have canteens, and many schools provide transportation. More than 90% of college students can get government subsidies (that is, tuition fees are paid by the government). In addition, 65,438+00% of the students can get scholarships from the school because of their excellent grades, and some can borrow money from the bank to pay tuition fees. After graduation, I will repay the bank in installments with my salary. Therefore, there will never be a situation in Britain where college students are forced to drop out of school because they can't afford tuition.

But Britain will charge tuition for foreign students. Students from continental Europe only charge a low tuition fee of 300-400 pounds, while students from third world countries such as China charge a high tuition fee of more than 5,000 pounds. The purpose is to prevent the influx of international students from these countries.
