I failed my Masters
due to piss poor supervision at a famous london university located near a lot of famous london museums.

The idea that could have she received crap teaching at Oxford is not really that surprising.

I sort of agree, most of my teaches at school were drunk or rapey
I doubt this helped me terribly...but's it's no the be all and end all especially for a University student.

My A Level German teacher
wasa raging paedo, and was knocking off a large number of the sixth form girls. As a munter of long standing, I was not one of those 'lucky' ladies.

When he was asked to leave, my class was left without a teacher for three months. I blame him entirely for the fact that I only achieved a B in what was essentially my best subject.

Cunt.

My A level french teacher died of cancer half-way through our course
He's not the entire reason I failed it though...

Fair point
I was really pointing out that people taking legal action against colleges and university when the whole thing has become a business transaction is not surprising and will likely become more widespread.

When you personally are paying thousands of pounds to get an education, the educator has a duty to ensure it carries out the teaching to the highest standard.

it's most likely that she is just a fucking spastic though
I bet a significant proportion of her peers did perfectly well.

I don't think there is any reason to think that she's a fucking spastic
It's just as likely that a significant proportion of her peers thought the course was fucking shit and taught by arrogant cunts who viewed themselves as doing these students a favour by deigning to teach them, but who were able to get good enough grades to do what they wanted.

Admittedly the idea that exams have become "psychologically difficult" doesn't really help her case not to be considered a fucking spastic, but it could easily be case of both statements being correct.
