Study shows elite schools dominate university admissions
, Added: 20 September 2007A new study - University admissions by individual schools - conducted by the Sutton Trust highlights the dominance of admissions to the country’s leading universities by a small number of schools, mainly fee paying.
Research into the university destinations of more than one million students over the past five years is the first to analyse in detail admission rates between 2002 and 2006 for 3,700 individual schools and colleges on the UCAS admissions database.
The Trust is committing a minimum of £10m over the next five years to widen access to these universities and is calling on others, including philanthropists, to join the cause and to support innovative new projects which will increase the number of entrants from non-privileged backgrounds.
