| Abstract | Social mobility, or the lack of it, is back in the news following the release of a University and College Union (UCU) report, "Location, Location, Location," and a speech from the Business Secretary, Lord Mandelson, in which he warned that there is no silver bullet when it comes to social mobility. The UCU report revealed that where a person lives will determine his or her chances of educational success and the gap between people living in underachieving areas and those in traditionally strong educational areas is widening, despite 1.9 billion British pounds spent on trying to widen university participation since 2005. "Location, Location, Location" analysed educational achievement by Westminster parliamentary constituency in England, Scotland and Wales and ranked each according to the percentage of people with at least some qualifications and the percentage of people with a degree or above. It also provided analysis of 21 of Britain's biggest cities by constituency. Findings of the report are presented and discussed. (ERIC). |
