Title | The Comprehensive University: an alternative to social stratification by academic selection |
Authors | Blackman, T. |
Abstract | This paper aims to promote a debate about whether academic selection in higher education has gone too far. By too far is meant beyond what students need to succeed on a course, with little demand on teaching expertise in the most selective institutions, and into a realm of prestige and discrimination that compounds Britain’s social class inequities. |
