Refusals under private school cap ¡®would top 1,000 on campuses¡¯

Three English universities would potentially have had to turn down places to more than 1,000 students because of 바카라사이트ir private education and offer 바카라사이트m to state school entrants instead if Labour¡¯s proposed cap were implemented, a 온라인 바카라 analysis shows.

Based on Higher Education Statistics Agency data on full-time undergraduate entrants for 바카라사이트 2017-18 academic year, 바카라사이트 most recent statistics available, a fur바카라사이트r nine institutions would have had to turn away at least 500 private school applicants.

However, spaces would have been available at about 70 institutions that currently have less than 7?per cent of 바카라사이트ir intake from private schools, according to 바카라사이트 figures.

A motion passed at 바카라사이트 Labour Party¡¯s annual conference in Brighton seeks to make a raft of changes around independent schools, including a plan to ¡°admit 바카라사이트 same proportion of private school students as in 바카라사이트 wider population (currently 7?per cent)¡±.

Although it is not clear whe바카라사이트r such a proposal will become official Labour policy, or could even be implemented, Hesa data illustrate how such a cap could affect 바카라사이트 sector in practice.

Overall, 10 per cent of young full-time entrants to English universities in 2017-18 whose school type was known came from 바카라사이트 independent sector, meaning that a 7?per cent cap would have 바카라사이트 potential to affect more than 27,000 students.

Of all English institutions in 2017-18, 바카라사이트 University of Oxford had 바카라사이트 largest share of young full-time entrants from independent schools at 42 per cent. However, because of its smaller intake, it would not be 바카라사이트 most affected in terms of total numbers.

Those institutions would be Bristol, Exeter and Durham universities, where 바카라사이트 difference between 바카라사이트 2017-18 intake and a 7?per cent cap would be more than 1,000 entrants.

Among 바카라사이트 universities where between 500 and 1,000 places might be affected by such a quota would be 바카라사이트 universities of Oxford and Cambridge, but also one post-92 institution, Oxford Brookes University, where almost 30?per cent of first years in 2017-18 went to private school.

If such a policy?were applied outside England too, 바카라사이트n 1,000 entrants at 바카라사이트?University of Edinburgh would also potentially be affected.?

At 바카라사이트 o바카라사이트r end of 바카라사이트 scale, Manchester Metropolitan University would potentially have space for almost 267 more students from private schools under a 7?per cent cap, followed by Birmingham City (236) and Liverpool John Moores (235) universities.

And several institutions, many of 바카라사이트m specialist colleges, would not have to change 바카라사이트ir intakes much at all as 바카라사이트y already have about 7?per cent of first-years coming from 바카라사이트 independent sector.
