Great to see @VikkiBoliver talking about the issue of false positives in with regard to POLAR and TUNDRA in contextual offer-making. It desperately needs to be a focus in the new APP guidance. #FairAdmissions2022

With emphasis on the wonderful people...!

I'm going to be on TV! Come and watch me know things (or not, as the case may often be). #onlyconnect https://t.co/jiwuHQsKAH

Well, if we ever needed evidence for how much @michelledonelan actually cares about WP, here it is. Just disappointing.

Michelle Donelan, asked what POLAR means, says "oh it goes off household income"

In the debate about the A level results fiasco, many seem to be turning their fire from Ofqual and the Govt, to Universities. Why, it is said, can't Universities simply give places to those denied places by the workings of the blatantly unfair algorithm? Long thread. 1/

@jim_dickinson Estonia 2015? Very underrated song!

[Charlie Deeks @CJD_Education]

@MattChorley Borgen! One of the best TV series I’ve seen, period.

Popped to the climate strike. Love how engaged the city is #GretaThunberg #Bristol

@beccablandish @nessmarathon @UKStandAlone Very best of luck! Thanks for all you do for estranged students - the standalone pledge is brilliant!

[Charlie Deeks @CJD_Education]

Great article from @hillarygyebi - especially about the push from decision-makers to prioritise being a 'sector leader' over EDI initiatives. https://t.co/ZRQaqYMItM

@NatalieJester Thanks Nat!

WP People - anyone know of any residential summer schools at universities that are created specifically for students from BAME backgrounds? We run one at Bristol (https://t.co/50t0As58f7) but trying to get a more national picture.

[Charlie Deeks @CJD_Education]

An important thread about the recent HoC vote about Erasmus. The Govt already adopt this position - it shouldn't be a surprise that they won't accept amendments that would give the opposition an easy win.

[Charlie Deeks @CJD_Education]

Applications are open now for the life-changingly brilliant - and free - Sutton Trust summer schools for Y12 students. Head to any one of 13 excellent universities (including the best one, @BristolUni)! Apply here: https://t.co/UdlzGNHgVY
