註釋This year's adult participation survey from the UK's National Institute of Adult Continuing Education (NIACE) shows a sea change. After years of falling numbers, and an ever-widening gulf between the learning-rich and the learning-poor, there has been an upturn in the proportion of adults engaged in learning and in the number expecting to take part in the future. Current or recent adult participation in learning has risen to the highest level for a decade. While the survey maps the continuing divide between people who have enjoyed the benefits of a good initial education and those who left education with little to show, there is evidence of a significant shift - most strikingly for the UK's working-class adults and those who have had least benefit from learning to date. A Change for the Better offers key findings from the survey, breaking down trends in participation and future intentions to learn by gender, socio-economic class, age, employment, and region. It provides up-to-date data as well as a valuable means for comparison over time. For the first time, the survey includes a section on attitudes to learning.
