9.9% fall in University applications in England (2012/13)

Well done the two c-words (Cameron and Clegg).  We can now look forward to a less educated workforce.  I wonder how this will impact on rebalencing the economy towards high-tech manufacturing?  Don't people in that sector need to be highly educated?

Yet another example of the Law of Unintended Consequences?  Or maybe this Government is deliberately trying to trash the future?

I think that the Government needs to work out how free further education used to be affordable.  A well educated workforce benefits all and not just the individual.  Charging for education is so wrong ...it kills the future.  Demotivating an entire generation is really not clever.
