David Willetts: University is still a good investment

Hugh Rayment-Pickard

The OECD has reported that the UK is falling behind other countries in the number of graduates it produces. This has provoked an interesting response from the Minister for Universities and Science David Willetts: "The OECD report shows that our Higher Education faces some real challenges, which the Government is determined to tackle. We have already taken action to boost student numbers by funding an extra 10,000 places and more people than ever are starting university this autumn. Going to university is still a good investment. Graduates are more likely to be in work than non graduates and can expect to earn more over their lifetime."
