That's excellent, hopefully other universities are going to follow suit with that. January intake could work, are they then going to have two intakes running alongside each other or bring them together over time?

Most places already offer February starts at Masters level. Just means you teach through the summer, have a longer break over Christmas and January. Lecturers aren't keen because they're teaching all year round, but it's not the hardest thing to introduce. And if it's the difference between keeping your job or massive drop in income and redundancy there's not much of a choice to make. 

Each student is £27750 over three years. Missing out on 100 students means almost three million quid od missed income. Uni's will find a way for that not to happen.

The problem is that a lot of spaces have been taken up by the inevitable chunk of private school/small class pupils who would have underperformed expectations by fucking up the exam but instead have had their forecast top grades accepted.

Any chance you could point me in the direction of this explanation?

There are more spaces this year because of the drop in EU and overseas applicants, not to mention the fact that grades and Ucas points on entry are used in many of the league tables. If there is suddenly a glut of students with AAA grades available, believe me, universities will find a way to get them in. 

Put bluntly, universities are businesses. They are not going to give up potentially millions of pounds of income easily. They'll find a way.

In an event which has surprised literally no-one, the government have now said that they will be using teacher-assessed grades. 

 

What an absolute fiasco from start to finish. My heart goes out to all of those students who had to suffer through this shit last week. 

[Wideload90]

The inevitable Tory U-turn has helped those students who were shafted by this shambolic approach. Where was chief Tory cunt Boris Johnson's press conference apologising for the biggest education related balls up in generations? Oh, that's right, he's on another holiday while Tory cunt wife Sarah Vine attempts to justify this break by claiming it's a 24/7 job via the medium of Twitter... Good fucking joke that is as our current PM hasn't worked consistently since he gained power. 

Few cobra meetings attended, stopped doing briefings and has taken several holidays. The bloke's a fucking cunt and should perish along with the rest of his party.

If you voted for this shower of shit, you are a cunt. A dirty, stinking pus-filled cunt.

Who'd have thought that being Prime Minister would be a 24/7 job. Wants everyone else back in work while he fucks off for a jolly.

Cunts.

Those last two posts could also describe Donald Trump. He’s definitely taken his tips on how to run a country from him (minus the golf trips and parties with Epstein)

While at the same time benefiting massively from the perception that "well, at least he's not as bad as Trump."

I guess the only positive way to look at it is even though their natural impulse is to be a bunch of cunts they're also spineless and will cave to pressure...

"No plans to change advice on the use of masks in schools."

"We'll look into it."

"We'll no longer advise against their use in school and we'll make it mandatory in the local lockdown areas."

All this since just before lunch.  Fuck me, they're exhausting.

BBC News app had the bloody cheek to send a breaking news alert as if a government U-turn is actually an unforeseen event.

The obscured book is one called Exodus. 

[Guest]

'Ey, remember Dad's Army, eh?

'Member those loveable heroes, defending these shores from foreign invaders?

And how similar it was to us all telling refugees to fuck off?

They don't like it up 'em, Mr Mainwaring! Hahahahaha.

Imagine not even being able to pretend to empathise having been reset several times by the on-air coach:

Or maybe she can (Burley says that she knows Coffey is a compassionate woman) but it's been drilled into them that any show of humanity towards refugess and asylum seekers would do even more harm than coming across like this does, which is a depressing thought on the state of the country.
