University applications are falling
For the first time for many years, the number of students applying for university places has fallen. It is said that there are around 4% fewer applicants living in England and around 5% less from people living in the EU. This seems logical, with fears over the implications of Brexit together with the fact that many degrees leave students with debts of in excess of £60,000.
Of course, many students will never earn enough money
to pay back all their loans, even though a graduate is estimated to earn around 35% more than someone without a degree. The greatest fall in university place take-up is among mature students who are often unable to afford the huge cost when they have families and commitments. The number of part-time students has also plummeted by more than 50%. The Open University has seen a decline in students to the tune of 30% in the last few years.
Now we’re farming!
Fancy getting outdoors and taking part in rural pursuits with like-minded young people? Well, the National Federation of Young Farmers’ Clubs (YFC) is currently enjoying something of a resurgence, according to the South East Area Clubs. One of the largest rural youth organisations in the UK, the YFC is dedicated to young people who want to learn about agriculture and rural life. It has more than 25,000 members across the country aged 10-26 who all enjoy the opportunity to develop skills, work with their local communities, travel abroad, participate in various competitions and enjoy a dynamic social life. Meetings are generally weekly and YFC members decide the content of their club’s programme. It is the aim of the organisation that members should try new things and learn new skills. And most importantly, have a lot of fun! • The Kent Federation Young Farmers’ is based in Smarden. For more information, visit
