Now for education vouchers — 2

A voucher scheme for post‐school education was advocated by Professor George Wedell at a Liberal Education Association meeting during the Liberal Assembly at Southport last year. Professor Wedell, who is Head of the Community Employment Projects Division in the EEC Commission and visiting Professor of Employment Policy at Manchester University, suggested that at the end of the compulsory school period each person should be able to claim vouchers which would entitle the holder to the equivalent of seven years recurrent education between the ages of 16 and 65.
