Am I wrong in recalling that those schools with the best results receive better funding? Under this impression I decided that individualising measures to the child (try explaining to a primary school child that failed results doesn't mean that they're a failure) and the only reason to do so, as the ministry already rated schools, was to make league tables the schools with struggling students will only have their capacity to assist them reduced. This will of course drive those that can away from the state school system into private schools and a trend with this government to reduce public offers in favour of private only increases.

The

link doesn't work for me. Having a look around the accessible pages it does appear that firm does promote debate of ideas and this was the aspect I found encoraging in the New Yorker article.

Hmm... unless it features someone going off the deep end and revealing themselves as an insane homicidal maniac I don't see how it can top my watching days...

To whom it may concern, you need not be. That is all.
