Inequality of access is not just experienced by the current crop of school leavers seeking places in full-time courses. What about all those now working and paying taxes who did not get the opportunity to enter higher education after leaving school? In 1980, some 80% of school leavers did not go to college. In 1992 the figure was 64% and even now 50% of school leavers do not go to full college. What about their rights to complete their education? Some of them are taking the initiative by getting higher education through part-time courses. However, they are discriminated against. They are paying fees of €10,000 and more to get the same degree for which full-time students pay no fees.
