250,000 to miss Univeristy places this year!

'Many highly-qualified young people with good A-levels will not get a place at university'

So when pupils come back to you at the start of the new year and tell you 'I didn't get accepted, why?'. What is your answer? How do you deal with this in the classroom for next years students?

Any Post 16 or Key Stage 4 programme cannot afford to leave this lesson out of their programme. Young people need to be well informed to make effect decisions such as the one above for the 250,000 students.
