    A lot of nonsense being spouted about how to help bright kids from poor homes into top universities. It's really simple: GRAMMAR SCHOOLS !!

        Actually there's quite a lot of evidence that kids are often better off being cared for by their parents

        Their teachers are vastly better qualified than ours, with PhDs the norm. Vastly different society too. Many other explanations...

        We tried to beat the next kid at a sport (now they promote mediocre). We were encouraged to do what we were good at. Discipline was taught.

        That doesn't do it either. Fewer kids, proportionally, go to uni from grammar if poorer. The privilege continues right down.

        It does it better than comps do. The state can't undo every failing in every home.

        No because all their grammar schools are in affluent areas.
