Correct. And here's one of many reasons why:
"It's actually considering that somebody with a 2:2 degree from a university in a really deprived area, which is where they were brought up, could be the equivalent of a First from a Russell Group university (group of 24 leading universities)."
If that's a realistic consideration there's something radically wrong with your recruitment processes.

it would be lovely if it was as simple as that. Unfortunately its not. people do tend to make subconscious judgements before they get as far as the onjective skills basket. I did work in the NHS on multiskilling staff, both qualified and support staff....it was really really hard to get people beyond eg "oh this person needs a nurse" to "oh this person needs someone with the skills to do xyz and skills x and z could be done by anybody.

That's true (and it doesn't even mention skin colour). Somebody who's managed to overcome an unsupportive family, a substandard education and a lack of independent access to other resources, and still managed to get themselves to and through university, quite possibly has a lot more about them that an employer would find attractive than somebody who's basically had everything done for them up to that point in life.
