This is an understandable and I imagine widely held view but it isn't right. The vast majority of schools worked hard to make these grades as fair as they could given the information available.

Hi all, Don’t forget that this year’s exams analysis must compare mock and CA grades with 5 previous years, postcodes, DA, SEND, EAL, LAC, height on the day they would have taken the exam, eye colour, length of eyelashes, type of knot in tie, and favourite Dua Lipa song. Thanks x

Who could have predicted that the nation’s most fearless defenders of ‘free speech’ could be so comprehensively undone by a dance troupe?

Amgad Salih, a 19 year old student from Peckham who is studying at the University of Oxford, shared this picture that his friend organised. They recreated the typical Oxford Bullingdon picture but with black students, to show black representation and inspire more Peckham people.

“You think your pain and your heartbreak are unprecedented in the history of the world, but then you read. It was books that taught me that the things that tormented me most were the very things that connected me with all the people who were alive, who had ever been alive.”

Wonderful to hear Christian Eriksen is awake. Let’s hope he continues to improve. His Danish team mates deserve the highest praise & respect. They demanded immediate medical help, screened him from the cameras, preserved his dignity and consoled his family. Inspiring ❤️🇩🇰

You don’t get to stoke the fire at the beginning of the tournament by labelling our anti-racism message as ‘Gesture Politics’ & then pretend to be disgusted when the very thing we’re campaigning against, happens.

How many times are we all watching this tonight? 🤯

This is why it matters. Representation. My daughter doesn’t have to have an interest in football. She just has to know that it’s an option. That she can become anything she sets her little heart on. From a princess to a lioness. And everything in between. #Lionesses #WEURO2022
