Question to the Department for Education:
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what estimate his Department has made of the number of nursing students who were overpaid loans and maintenance grants by the Students Loans Company.
We are aware of 804 NHS funded students who may have been overpaid maintenance loans and/or grants in the academic year 2017/18.
None of the students affected should suffer hardship as a result of the error, and students affected should contact the Student Loans Company.
