«Breaking News» School pupils should only apply for university after A-Level results UCU says

Pupils would not apply for university until after they received their A-level results in a major shake-up proposed by academic leaders today.

The move would eliminate unconditional offers and end the 'chaos' of the current clearing process, according to the University and College Union.

Under its proposals, teenagers would apply to university after finding out their exam results and would not start the first year of their higher education course until November.

The union argues that the reforms would make the system fairer and bring Britain into line with the rest of the world.

It says no other countries use predicted grades to award university places, and seven in ten staff involved in university admissions support the move to post-qualification application.

Ucas figures show that last year more than a third of British 18-year-olds applying to university received a form of unconditional offer before completing their school qualifications.

The report also looks at how to improve advice for pupils when it comes to deciding what to study, and calls on the Government to commission an independent review of university admissions.

Matt Waddup, the UCU's head of policy, said: 'There is growing support for a shift to a system where pupils apply to university after they have received their results. This report sets out how that could work in practice.

'Such a move would not only be fairer for pupils, it would bring the UK into line with the rest of the world and eliminate the use of controversial unconditional offers and the chaotic clearing process.

'The current admissions process based on predicted grades is failing pupils and needs an urgent overhaul. 

'The time has come for the Government to grasp the nettle on this issue and commission an independent review of higher education admissions to take forward the agenda.'

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
