Description
With the recent controversial decisions to cut the Educational Maintenance Allowance for Further Education students, allow parents to set up their own 'free schools' and permit state schools to become privately-run academies, the face of British education is rapidly changing. 80% of young people now feel that they are very likely to go to university, whilst the Government is increasing funding for vocational apprenticeship training to over £1.4 billion. This book examines the issues. The information comes from a wide range of sources and includes government reports and statistics, newspaper articles, features, magazine articles and surveys, literature from lobby groups and charitable organisations.
