A framework for estimating the social rate of return to adult basic skillsEvery two years, the UK Government makes decisions about its policy priorities in a spending review. Even when the big political choices have been made - between education and law and order, for example - difficult decisions need to be taken as to how to allocate funds within budgets, requiring detailed analysis of both the costs and benefits of policy options. Frontier worked with the Department for Education and Skills to construct a framework of costs and benefits that could be used to assess the worth of training adults in numeracy and literacy skills.
