There is no doubt that Oxford by and large produce good pilots but to not recomend modular students who make the grade with good first time passes and then to recomend integrated students who have not performed as well seems to me to be linked with the amount of money the student has spent and not ability.
This can't be good for the airlines and will do Oxfords reputation no good in the long run.
As for the standard of new first officers that I come into contact with , generaly it is satisfactory but standards are slipping mainly in the motivation and CRM departments.
