Motion Text

That this House congratulates all those higher education institutions which have developed successful access strategies for under-represented groups such as working class children and adults, ethnic minorities and people with disabilities; welcomes the Government's continued commitment to lifelong learning; notes that 42 per cent. of all students are officially part-time; and calls on the Government to ensure that its proposed Higher Education Bill is fair and equitable for part-time and full-time adult students.
