</p><p>We are considering adult skills more widely as a department and will therefore
be considering trends in the take-up of adult education as part of this. In addition,
we are looking carefully at further education funding in preparation for the Spending
Review. We are considering how effective our funding and regulatory structures are
in supporting high quality provision, and in line with the aims of the Post-18 Review,
to ensure a coherent vision for further and higher education.</p>
