The privately educated are still heavily overrepresented at the top of British society. Since we last looked at elitism in 2019, little has changed 👎 Britain’s most powerful people are still 5x more likely to have been privately educated than the general population.

Roughly 1% of the population go to Oxford or Cambridge for university. But those in Britain's top jobs are 21x more likely to have attended Oxbridge than the wider population. Oxbridge attendance is highest among senior judges, permanent secretaries, and in the shadow cabinet.

Emer Sytm (@esri.ie) presented a fascinating study comparing two cohorts of 13-year-olds in Ireland. Findings show persistent gender inequalities, a widening STEM gender gap, rising emotional difficulties among girls, and lasting social inequalities in out-of-school activities, culture, and reading.
