“Illogical” that campuses can’t fully reopen next week, says @UniversitiesUK: organisation writes to Boris Johnson asking why shops and gyms can reopen but 1 million students can’t return for in-person teaching

@TheMontyDon Brilliant. Notepad and pen at the ready!

This shows we should worry much less about the question “what are they going to do with that then?”

With Construction and Real Estate sectors both in Linked In's Emerging Jobs list, what's not to like about about studying and working in the Built Environment?

Liking University of Cambridge's plans for a Foundation Programme for disadvantaged students. Careers Advisors in schools should be shouting from the rooftops about this!

If you struggle with the concept of student finance putting young people in forever debt, listen to this Martin Lewis podcast. New verb “to de-aspire” https://t.co/B1Uzkv5C7h

@Wonkhe Article shows impact on individuals, however much we look at overall figures, pupils who out perform the average have lost out. So no Oxbridge, no med or vet places for a those 5 or 10% of students who are at the top of their school performance. And no options or clarity either

[Bridget Wells @BridgetMWells]

#alevelresults2020 the more I read, the worse I feel. How can students make good decisions when they have so little information and the timelines don’t match up. And now you may have to wait a year for your place if your appeal is successful. Unfair, Shambolic, Distressing

[Bridget Wells @BridgetMWells]

#ofqualappeals There are so many aspects of unfairness and inequality in this years A level grading its mind boggling. Some winners sure, but a lot of very sad and badly treated losers being told you aren’t good enough for a top university because the system says so.
