Thousands of Kent students are calling for tuition fees to be lowered as they are forced to once again study remotely due to the pandemic.
They have signed a petition calling for the Government to help reduce university fees from £9,250 to £3,000 - as lockdown rules mean the majority of students will be learning online until at least mid-February.
