Most people in the UK do not go to university – and maybe never will
Data suggests that the majority of the UK population will never go to university, finds Charlie Ball.
Almost everyone goes to university nowadays, everyone knows that.
Except that not everyone does and we rarely see accurate statistics about how many or what proportion of people actually do. It’s quite an important question, bound up with thorny issues of workforce skills, educational aspiration and, of course, how (and how much) the UK taxpayer funds our domestic higher education sector.
