The last word on the whole debacle which has, I think, exposed Cameron as a wet, socialist, non-Conservative is made by Nadine Dorries MP.
Let her be promoted and her sense used to fight the advancing hordes of (wrong) socialists.

But I think Grammas don’t go far enough.
Yes send the academic kids to places that can get the best out of them but there needs to be freedom of choice for people with other aptitudes also.
When I was at school I learnt little compared to the number of years I was there, but after school I became a hobbyist programmer, wished I’d paid more attention in my maths lessons and had to do some catch up.
I learnt a lot better because I had something in mind that I wanted to do where-as in school a lot of it ’seemed’ too abstract at the time
One of my brothers friends was told he’d never amount to anything by teachers, he is not an academic sort but he works hard on the farm and knows his stuff with regard to that.
We need to get away from this one size fits all education.

I couldn’t agree more.
