[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here's another article about the shock British parents of independent school student encounter when they realize their kid isn't going to Oxbridge. It discusses the rise of state school sixth form academies who are sending more and more kids to the top universities. Many of the complaints mirror the themes raised in this long Big 3 thread. It's worth a read. How Britain's Private Schools Lost Their Grip on Oxbridge https://www.ft.com/content/bbb7fe58-0908-4f8e-bb1a-081a42a045b7[/quote] It's behind a paywall and, much as I respected the FT when I used to get it for free at work, I'm not subscribing now. Could you do a cut and paste of a few key paras? Thanks![/quote] Sorry, it's blocked me out now too. There are many similarly themed articles appearing in the UK now though, as well as ones saying independent schools are appointing college counselors to help their students get into US colleges.[/quote]
