[QUOTE="AirGuitarist87"][QUOTE="AnObscureName"]But that isn't saying "let poor people in" it's saying there should be other ways of getting into university besides A Levels or "people from backgrounds without a history of going to college". This will never come to order as it negates the entire higher education system. If someone cannot handle A Levels then they won't be able to handle University, it's that simple, it has nothing to do with financial background.I'm meaning things like this this.

I agree with these sort of scheme as they encourage equality. Let me ask you this who is more intelligent the person who got AAA from a private school where there are classes of ten and the teachers basically do their coursework for them or someone from a comprehensive school who gets AAB. where the student really has to work to get the results
