More than enough blame to go right around

I’ve just been looking at some numbers for grade inflations for A-Levels in this non-examination year. The much maligned algorithm used by the Education Department created inflation of the order of a few per cent. But when guestimates by teachers are used, the inflation can get up to 50%+.
    Which just goes to show that using the teacher estimates confirms that politics is all about giving the people what they want, even if it turns out to be valueless.
