A Facebook page that urged students to rate their sexual partners has been deleted after national uproar.

Oxford Brookes was among other UK universities which had pages set up on the social media site encouraging users to score their lovers out of 10.

University spokesman Matthew Butler said: “Facebook groups are occasionally created by individuals not associated with universities and we are pleased that this particular page has been deleted.”

The Oxford Brookes student account set up this week had more than 90 friends before it was pulled.
