More than 75,000 students have joined legal action to demand compensation of up to half a billion pounds from top universities for lost learning over strikes and Covid.
It comes as more than 70,000 academics across 150 universities will walk out this week in the largest strikes in the history of British higher education.
The number of students joining the landmark legal action by the Student Group Claim has risen dramatically from just 20,000 last year after further action was announced.
If successful, the legal action could trigger a torrent of claims from anybody who attended university after 2018 seeking an average of £5,000 per person in compensation.
