@KTHopkins Word of the day is 'catchfart' (17th century): one who slavishly follows behind their boss and who blows with the political wind.

@jaredwright17 Blue was never legal, terrible clear out but can referees play a bigger part by penalising sooner to avoid the second action.

Just had another 2 awarding bodies (QLS and Skills & Education Group) email me and confirm they do not work with Oxbridge or Barston College. 13 from 16. But the logos are still there and continue to mislead would-be students.

Let's see what 'ThoughtMix' have to say about why they are so keen to manage an affiliate scheme for such a grubby little operation.

@OxbridgeWatchUK daughter finally awarded her qualification after finding another provider to take her on Ascend Training were first rate. Oxbridge were a very expensive mistake both financially and emotionally

Now that this edition is no longer commercially available I'd like to share Private Eye's recent article about Oxbridge and its failure of an owner - Matt Jones

[Timothy Ryder-Jones @TuggyRJ]

@OxbridgeWatchUK Shameless, thousand of pounds wasted and having to pay another provider to gain qualification.

[Oxbridge_Watch @OxbridgeWatchUK]

Another review. This time from a former Oxbridge employee who has hit the nail on the head - 'Avoid Barston College at all costs. It's the same guy'

[Oxbridge_Watch @OxbridgeWatchUK]

Happy New Year to anyone not called Matt Jones

[Oxbridge_Watch @OxbridgeWatchUK]

Have you seen this man? He’s wanted for abandoning 5600 students, not paying his staff, and then not sorting out the P45s for staff lucky enough to have sorted themselves out with a new job.

[Oxbridge_Watch @OxbridgeWatchUK]

This is the new Matt Jones-run 'education' provider. He's left 5600 students without support, and made almost all staff redundant and those that have found a new job still don't have their P45 because Matt Jones hasn't sorted it out for them. Appalling!

[Oxbridge_Watch @OxbridgeWatchUK]

Former Oxbridge employees are STILL waiting for their P45s. This means those who have found a new job are being taxed more than they should because they don't have their P45.

Matt Jones - do the decent thing for once! Get it sorted!

[Oxbridge_Watch @OxbridgeWatchUK]

Looks like Matt Jones latest foray into education 'Barston College' is aggressively policing the trustpilot reviews. Because a rebrand doesn't work if people are constantly reminding people of the 5600 students left abandoned after Oxbridge - run by Matt Jones - collapsed.

[Oxbridge_Watch @OxbridgeWatchUK]

'How awful that they have left their students and staff in the lurch yet continue to sell courses'

Isn't it just.

[Oxbridge_Watch @OxbridgeWatchUK]

Another review of 'Barston College':

@PrivateEyeNews

[Timothy Ryder-Jones @TuggyRJ]

@fleet29 @1968Tv If my memory serves me correctly Match of the Day did exactly that, showing both saves for comparison.

[Oxbridge_Watch @OxbridgeWatchUK]

50% off! Wow - what a discount! Is that worth the risk of being abandoned like the 5600 students left in the lurch by Matt Jones’ previous learning provider?

Beware of Barston ‘College’ folks!

[Oxbridge_Watch @OxbridgeWatchUK]

Would love to know if this is an enrolment that's taken place AFTER the 1st October 2025.

[Timothy Ryder-Jones @TuggyRJ]

@Oxbridge_Fail Shameless, they have caused untold stress and anxiety on their learners. Two years hard work for nothing, no support, no advice.
