Shame on Oxbridge!
Shame on Oxbridge (A degree of separation, 07/07/18)! How many students like the brilliant Michael Donkor have the Oxbridge colleges rejected because their A-level grades, gained in underfunded state comprehensives, didn`t quite match those achieved by the over-privileged 7%? How many did they put off from applying with their outmoded admissions procedure, unsympathetic interviews, and their obvious preference for white, upper-middle class students? The sooner a government has the courage to limit universities to accepting only 7% of their intake from public schools, the better!
