BEEB TOP JOBS STILL GOING TO POSH RECRUITS

THE BBC is failing in its mission to hand more top jobs to people from state schools.

The corporation vowed to become more diverse after studies showed senior roles were disproportionately filled by those with a public school background.

But data uncovered by the Sunday Mirror suggests Auntie is still far too posh.

While only 7% of people in the UK are privately educated, they still occupy 21% of BBC jobs that earn more than £150,000 a year.

Among those at the broadcaster earning less than £30,000, just 9% went to fee-paying schools.

In 2021 the number of privately educated people in senior leadership jobs rose 15%, from 68 to 78.

By contrast, the number from state schools working at the same level rose just 5%, from 172 to 180.
