University strikes: Minister says 'even one student not getting their grade is wrong'



Education minister Robert Halfon has told Sky News that it’s “wrong” that some university students are not getting their final degree marks due to ongoing strikes over pay and conditions.

University lecturers and staff across the country have been taking strike action over pay and conditions since 2017, which has escalated this year to a marking boycott, meaning students in some universities are not being awarded their final degree classifications.
