Hi Steve,

When you write " .... Surely their are many ideas worth debating, worth suggesting to be fixed. How about 13 years of bad education for starters. .... ", you are spot-on.

In my distant childhood, school classrooms were pretty minimal, no fancy technology like OHPs, teacher out the front, forty or fifty kids sitting at fixed desks, the cane near the blackboard. But somehow we learnt our percentages and parsing. The teachers taught, they never seemed to have any admin work to do, maybe they did, but their focus was us kids.

So what went wrong ?

Joe
