No, the main problem is that not enough state schools teach pupils up to the level needed for Oxbridge. https://twitter.com/toadmeister/status/676041374349860864 …
@MichaelLeam @Fox_Claire @cijane02 @EconBritain just cos they are more likely to get a 1st, doesn't mean they arrived at uni better educated

@JuliaHB1@Fox_Claire@cijane02 I didn't day they were better educated. I'm just pointing out your claim to the contrary is very flimsy -
@MichaelLeam@Fox_Claire@cijane02 no, if you compare the work being done in average comp and top private schools, comps are YEARS behind. -
@JuliaHB1@Fox_Claire@cijane02 Comparing an average one with a top one? -
@MichaelLeam@Fox_Claire@cijane02 top state schools aren't comps, they're grammar schools. -
@JuliaHB1@Fox_Claire@cijane02 As someone who went to a grammar and has taught in a state I know you're wrong. -
@JuliaHB1@Fox_Claire@cijane02 There is excellent teaching and 'well read' kids in all sectors. Can't make sweeping statements like yours -
@MichaelLeam@Fox_Claire@cijane02 of course there are but the country's top schools don't include many comps. Why not if all so good? - 5 more replies
