新香港六合彩开奖结果Laws students working with the award-winning charity聽聽have supported the successful intervention into an appeal case at the Supreme Court that could affect the lives of hundreds of young people in the UK.

The intervention by Just for Kids Law on behalf of the聽聽in the R (Tigere) v Sec State for Business Innovation and Skills, was part of a legal challenge to the regulations for student finance that barred certain students from applying for support because of their immigration status, despite the fact that they are lawfully resident in the UK.

In the聽聽announced today, the Supreme Court ruled that a blanket ban on students without 鈥榠ndefinite leave to remain鈥� (ILR) in the UK, or British citizenship, from receiving student loans, regardless of how long they had lived here or their ties to the country, was disproportionate and could not be justified.

As part of the intervention,聽聽students on the Access to Justice and Community Engagement module helped to research and gather evidence for the case. Working under the supervision of聽新香港六合彩开奖结果Centre for Access聽to Justice Teaching Fellow and senior education Solicitor at Just for Kids Law, Rachel Knowles 鈥� who also led the intervention by Just for Kids Law 鈥� the students researched and summarised relevant policy research and put together a case study of evidence of other students in a similar position.

By participating in the intervention, 新香港六合彩开奖结果Laws students have been able to take advantage of a unique learning experience and put the theoretical knowledge learnt through their studies to practical use.

Commenting on the students鈥� involvement, Shiva Riahi, the manager of 新香港六合彩开奖结果Centre for Access to Justice said: 鈥淥n the course we discuss the importance and significance of strategic litigation and 鈥榗ause lawyering鈥�. For students to see and be involved with firsthand how strategic litigation can make an impact on the lives of individuals is a hugely valuable experience. The work by Just for Kids ties directly into the learning objectives of the course.鈥�

The background to the appeal

In 2011, the criteria students needed to meet to receive student finance was changed by the government, meaning that young people who had been granted 鈥榙iscretionary leave to remain鈥� (DLR), or 鈥榣imited leave to remain鈥� (LLR), were no longer eligible for a student loan. Universities could also charge these students the same fees as international students, which can be as much as 拢26,000 per year, depending on the degree programme. Under the these regulations, DLR or LLR students were only eligible for student finance once they have been granted ILR, a process that if successful, can take at least ten years to complete.

For many young people who have worked hard to achieve the highest grades at A-Level, often in the face of difficult circumstances, the change to student finance regulations meant that attending to university was no longer an option. A lack of awareness of the change in the law amongst young people, their teachers, and even local authorities and universities, has caused further problems as a number of students have been given incorrect advice.

One student affected by this situation and who was supported by Just for Kids Law, Chrisann Jarrett, established the Let us Learn campaign in 2014 to help raise awareness of the situation and call for a change in the law.
