Situational Analysis

UK student university fees figures for 2010 and 2011 revealed overseas prices were up to six times as much as home fees. In October last year the Brown review sparked significant debate with its conclusion that universities should be allowed to decide what they charge students. This decision would see the cap on tuition fees lifted and allow for a 10% increase in student places to meet the rising demand for a degree-level education.

Examining and explaining Saudi Arabia's educational practices relating to parent-school-community partnerships

In Saudi Arabia, parents have taken their children to school and haven't been doing follow ups on the student's school performance and attendance.
