DACE

The Access course is a valuable resource that enables those who wish to enter into a course of undergraduate study the opportunity to do so. By doing access, I not only gained the qualifications required, but, i also received a grounding in what would be expected in terms of the level and depth of work.

"Established more than fifty years ago it aims to provide learning opportunities for adults in the West of Scotland and to widen access to University education to the community at large." 
(taken from DACE webpage)

Are we now in the business... of restricting learning opportunities and narrowing access to university education?

If elected I will be fighting to see the continuation of DACE. The threat to DACE along with the ever constant threat to local libraries will make education once again the preserve of the few. The voice of student opposition must be channeled through a representative and effective SRC.
 
The removal of DACE would be an act of vandalism against the community. Such an act must be resisted.
