List of Oxfrd bad performing students made public, by accident.

Thursday, 16 January 2014




In what can only be viewed as a blunder, or some form of medieval humiliation equated to an academic version of the stocks, an email was sent around University College (a college at Oxford - one of the oldest, but let's not open that debate), listing the 50 worst performing students of the pre-christmas exams. This was an administrative blunder, one perfectly understandable in our view.

 But rather than brand names at Oxford, it's academic performance which really influences the social standing of a student. One student notes "I was pretty gutted after my results last term, but didn't realise I would be publicly humiliated. I can't even go into college any more". Perhaps slightly over the top, but not to be outdone, another student quips, "They may as well have gone the whole hog and just released all health records of students whilst they were at it- or maybe just those with STIs".

Tell me a little more?

Footprints Tours represents a new approach to sightseeing. The idea started because we don't like seeing tourists exploited: we think it's crazy to ask you to pay for a tour before you have experienced it. We believe in the power of the customer and the power to freely indicate whether or not we merit a tip. So when you take one of our tours, you, the customer, decide how good the tour has been, and voluntarily give just as much as you want.
