Re: Schools told to improve or close

We'll see.I suspect this government will be gone long before this happens...

Anyway if you try to treat education like a commodity what can you expect?Plus as I've said time and time again that we need to return to teaching more vocational courses because clearly not every child can be in the top percentage.Trying to drive the lower ability children into the next statistic grouping up was never going to work and never will.Square pegs and round holes springs to mind.

Stupid government after stupid government have completely messed up because they will not work out a LONG TERM solution.They have increased the work load for both teachers and students without any long term benefit.

I would love to see a permanent all party committee to take charge of education long term but I suspect that is just too sensible.

Instead we deal in 5 yearism and every so often start up some new instant quick fit solution only to abandon it two or three years down the line or when we have a new bunch of useless twits voted in.

Oh and Bridgemary school has had a terrible rep for the last 15 years but then it does have some of the worst catchment areas in the entire town.The other two secondary schools do get a better pick of the students.
