" As a consequence the level of education will ....."

Answer

I'll just give you some examples of how I'd say it:

"As a consequence of underfunding, the level of education will fall."

"Consequently, the level of education will fall."

"In consequence, the level of education will fall."

Normally we would say "as a consequence of X, Y will happen."

For your example, I think "consequently" or "in consequence" is better.
