Proceeding contribution from Brooks Newmark (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 12 July 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Further Education and Training Bill [Lords].


Further Education and Training Bill [Lords]

Does my hon. Friend agree that the great thing about further education institutions, as opposed to higher education institutions, is that the wider public perceive it as less elitist, because further education institutions take in those who might be from disadvantaged backgrounds and those who never had a chance to progress their education at all? We have a great opportunity to support further education, for that very reason.
