    Education, education, education

    Education has been our primary focus since coming to power, and the recent results from last years university students underline the success our government has achieved.

    http://www.telegraph.co.uk/education...ord-level.html

    Almost two thirds left with a first or upper-second compared to just over half a decade ago.

    The number of top degrees awarded by UK universities increased by 14,000 to 189,415 in just 12 months, official figures show.

    More than one-in-eight students was awarded a first - up 50 per cent in almost 10 years.


    There now awaits a British job for EVERY British worker. Expect your local shelf stacker, burger flipper and checkout girl to have at least a 1st in Media Studies.

      Checks with Google...

      Hmm, I wonder...

      Results 1 - 10 of about 11,700 for tesco value mba.
      Can't say I'm surprised.

      Results 1 - 10 of about 3,870 for tesco value bsc.
      Results 1 - 10 of about 23,400 for tesco value ba.
      I can't say I'm surprised at that result either. Tesco Value science degrees are too hard.

      However, I clearly set my sights too low:

      Results 1 - 10 of about 81,400 for tesco value phd.
      I want my,
      I want my,
      I want my PhD.

      Drivelling in TPD is not a mental health issue. We're just community blogging, that's all.
