In clearing we had kids from state schools with straight As predicted BBC. We took then through clearing. Posh kids always got their parents to ring, who screamed at me when I said we wouldn’t take them.
If you want to make it fair, it has to be based on achieved grades. Interviewing students is overrated, heavily biased, and a proven waste of time. An algorithm can better tell you who to take.
We had the same when I worked for an exam board. The wealthier parents would ring and pay for remarks. Then scream down the phone at you if their child did not get the grades they believed they deserved.
Every time. And I had to point out that legally I couldn’t speak to them, only their child.
