World Class Skills 2020

Less attention should be paid to whether 35, 40, 42 or 50 per cent. of young people go to university and much more to the need for lifelong learning and adult education, as my hon. Friend the Member for South Holland and The Deepings said. Indeed, as the hon. Member for Bristol, West pointed out, almost with disappointment, 42 per cent. of the current cohort of 18 to 19-year-olds wish to go to university, and that percentage has remained the same for the past few years.
