An Irish Travellers Access to Higher Education report was incorrectly compiled by a think tank. The group apologized.

A Higher Education Policy Institute report (HEPI), on Thursday, was released about the education of Gypsys, Roma, and Irish Travellers living in the UK.

It stated that Irish Travellers faced barriers when trying to access mainstream education and called for assistance.

The report did not indicate that the proportion of Irish Travellers enrolled in UK universities was higher than it is.

According to recent research from the European Union, Irish Travellers are subject to the most discrimination and poverty of any European ethnic group.

HEPI, a UK-wide independent thinktank that focuses on higher education, is called the HEPI.

The report focused mainly on the educational barriers faced by members of the UK’s Gypsy, Roma, and Irish Traveller communities.

It was based on the experiences of young people from the Irish Traveller Community in pre-school, school, higher education and further education.

It concluded that improving the access and participation of UK students to education for Gypsy, Roma, and Irish Travellers requires a sustained, long-term focus.

The report made the central claim that less than 4% of Irish Travellers and 6% of UK young people were from Gypsy or Roma communities.

These figures are now incorrect and entry rates are higher, according to the institute.

They clarified that 10.7% Irish Travellers in Britain have access to higher education before the age of 19 and 6.9% of young Gypsy or Roma people.

This is still a lot lower than the UK’s overall rate of 37% who enter higher education.

Northern Ireland has even higher rates of entry, with an unprecedented proportion of school-leaving students starting university in the last two years.

The director of HEPI Nick Hillman apologized for his error in a statement to BBC News NI.

He stated that the general point that Gypsys, Roma, and Travellers have very low rates of entry into higher education is unchanged. The rest of the report remains the same.”

“The data is correct and it’s not true to state that Irish Travellers have a lower rate of entry into higher education than Gypsy or Roma.

“This is embarrassing because we are evidence-led organisations, but we will correct any errors when they occur.”

The institute has corrected the report and contacted Westminster’s education select committee to alert them about the error. This was because the original source of data in the HEPI study was that institute.
