Bristol University Accepts Lower Grades for Some Students

I am all for widening access to University, but it doesn’t make sense to me to widen access by letting students in who haven’t got high enough grades, if they come from a lower class background.
Students who haven’t got the grades are frankly, not good enough. They can’t be bothered to study, and are doomed to fail at a good university like Bristol.
Maybe though, Bristol is thinking of providing a class of dumbed down degrees for these students, in the same way as Prince Charles was provided with a dumbed down degree from Cambridge, when he failed to get the grades to get into Cambridge on merit.
