Oxford college to honour all offers despite results

[FfFfFfFF 58,141]

An Oxford college said it will accept all students with offers regardless of their A-level results, as thousands of Oxbridge alumni call on others to show equal “kindness and generosity” to downgraded pupils.

Laura Ashe, the tutor for admissions at Worcester College, Oxford, said it had decided to honour all UK offers this year because it is the “morally right thing to do”.

Ashe told BBC Radio 4: “For us, at a very simple level, it was clear to us before results came out that these students were not going to have sat exams and therefore we took the view that there wasn’t going to be any new information there that could justify rejecting someone to whom we’d made an offer.”

“And, of course, when we did get the results … we discovered something much more disturbing, which was quite how much already disadvantaged students were being further disadvantaged by the way these grades were being given.”

Wow brilliant news. Hope more universities and colleges follow.

I think that due to this situation it's really good news. The previous education year was hard enough. I've spent a lot of time searching for necessary information, and thankfully to https://edubirdie.com/buy-college-papers I've managed to have some time for my hobbies. I think that the possibility to buy papers has helped me to finish this year successfully. I think that other colleges/universities should follow this way.
