This blog was conceived after the Scottish Cup Final of 2004 when Celtic played Dunfermline. The idea was discussed in The Last Post pub in Paisley late at night as a means of allowing us to share news, opinions and post links of mutual interest. The date of the Final was 22 May.

I was watching the news during the week as saw this bloke talking about derived grades. I had never heard of this before. I recognised the bloke but couldn't believe that it was Spike Milligan from university days. He looked a bit different but his voice was the same. And he was quite articulate. It looks like he has got a point. The two schools in Fife with the most derived grades are Balwearie and Madras College - both serving affluent areas. I never thought I would find myself being impressed by Spike.

Did you say that it was Spike and that he was "quite articulate"? ;-)
ReplyDeleteInteresting website. The Sunday Times had an article on how the appeals process helps middle class children.
