Do you think that higher education is one of the main values of the English-speaking society? If "yes" - why?

No. Thousands of qualified specialists with degree can't find a job. Sometimes, high school is more than enough.

higher education is one of the main values of the English-speaking society-it is true!!!The aim of the government is to increase the number of students who enter into higher education. The driving force for this has been mainly economic. It is assumed that the more people who study at degree level, the more likely the country is to succeed economically. A large proportion of young people – about a third in England and Wales and almost half in Scotland – continue in education at a more A-level beyond the age of 18. The higher education sector provides a variety of courses up to degree and postgraduate degree level, and careers out research.
It increasingly caters for older students; over 50% of students in 1999 were
aged 25 and over and many studied part-time. Nearly every university offers
access and foundation courses before enrolment on a course of higher education
of prospective students who do not have the standard entry qualifications.
