As an education person. I totally agree. Teaching methods, technology are way ahead of my school days. Problem is the need to show success with bollox like A*s. It should always be based on %.

Universities are getting easier.

I'd guess the fees increase is by far a greater disincentive than any perceived reduction in standards. Indeed using the international standards our uni's still kick everyone else into a cocked hat proportionally to our intake and population.

Re: [LU] nonLU: bored?
48% socialist dream to make uni attainable. Good motives but like Arsenal you can expand but if the product is getting worse people wont pay or come and you end up filling it with freebies. I'm in vocational education anyway so I would like to see uni places capped at 25% and the rest put into useful skills for the modern economy as we call it.
