I just found this and was disgusted

Universities will offer places to state school candidates over public school candidates, even if the one from the public school gets better marks. The government wants the universities to make it 75%+ state school kids, whether they do better or not (thats what I understood from the article, without checking it)
Surely people should be offered places on their marks, not which school they come from. I think its because the governement and political correctness don't want to see those from public schools get into top universites over state school children, becuase the government wants to ban them (public schools, not universities, although im sure thats next on the list). Absolutely rediculous (cant spell for toffee, or indeed anything else) , what do you think???
