Re: Sats for seven-year-olds set to be scrapped

My brother has said basic skills have been on the decline in school leavers noticeably for the last fifteen years and that he's reluctant to employ them as the extra time need to raise literacy and numeracy to acceptable levels before they can start the job training is cost prohibitive. I've seen for myself the attitude of secondary and upper schools as they were then binning kids that wouldn't return a favourable GCSE result putting them into mobile classrooms watching videos. We have a major problem in our education system and it's failing a lot of kids and all the teaching unions and politicians do is pass the damn buck neither willing to admit cause on their end and so nothing gets resolved, it's pathetic and it needs to stop.
