Never forget that the main purpose of private schools isn't education but social segregation, and when certain ppl on the right feel like that process is being threatened, even very marginally, they'll start saying unhinged shit like this
Unis letting in pupils with lower grades than private school pupils are using a practice ‘as abhorrent as discrimination on the basis of race or sex’, says @Policy_Exchange head of education.
Can this be squared with #LevellingUp?

Given that Matthew Godwin is now on the Social Mobility Commission this shouldn't be a surprise.

Pretty sure @misssnuffy and her Conservative friends would scream blue murder if another school invited a prominent left winger to address students. Also: this tweet doesn’t seem very professional.
Katie (@sewdarngood) and Jake (@jakeoneuk) interviewed @ShiriShalmy from @antiuniversity for the latest BE podcast episode.
Last few days of Anti uni are on now!
