The given graph illustrates changes in the percentage of employed people according to their educational qualification in the UK over the 35-year period, with a prediction for 2025.
To begin, individuals with higher education have been more successful in terms of recruitment prospects. Those having a Bachelor’s degree certificate started at 0%, whereas by 2000 the indicator had climbed at around 13% following by a period of wild fluctuations. Nevertheless, in 2025 it is predicted to have reached a peak of approximately 15%. As for employees with a Master’s degree, there has been a continuous grow, with a dramatic increase of 25% between 2005 and 2010. Finally, it is expected to soar by roughly 10% at the end of the provided period.
Next, it is worth mentioning predominantly downward trends, namely among people who are schools leavers or have not had even this. Since 1990, chances for being offered a job for individuals without a school certificate have been constantly diminishing, with a projection by 2025 to reach a low of just over -15%. Meanwhile, residents of the UK who have been able to demonstrate a document of graduation from school have been experiencing a sluggish, but continuous decline. However, the decrease stopped in 2010 and there has been a period of steadiness that is likely to last by the final year, ending at slightly over than -5%.
Overall, it is visible that the British employers appreciate the most those who have graduated from university with either Bachelor’s degree or Master’s degree providing them with better employment opportunities in the UK.
