AnnotationThe focus of government policy on vocational education for younger people has led to a decrease in the numbers of older people on publicly funded courses in recent years. This policy paper has been produced after consultation with a wide range of interested agencies. It maps out some current policy development; summarises recent research into older people's learning; and makes proposals about what a proper service of learning to older people might look like. The government Public Sector Agreement (PSA) objectives and indicators relevant to older learners are listed as an annex. (RH).
