Student campaigning for change to student finance system
A local undergraduate is campaigning for change to the Island's student finance system.
Kathryn Sharman, a Law student in the UK, admits Manx students are at a financial advantage once they've graduated, but thinks there's too much pressure on parents to provide financial stability during their children's further education.
British students have access to a student loan, and, in some cases, maintenance grants, which cover their living costs, rent and day-to-day needs.
Miss Sharman says in relative terms, the pressure on Manx families can be much greater:
'Come back to the table,' says DOI minister
Consultation seeks feedback on changes to IOM first time buyer schemes
Yellow weather warning for coastal overtopping
'Privilege to represent Island at British-Irish Council', says chief minister
