Education Ken Davidson

After 70 years of free universal education, politicians and social commentators, are telling us that we have a mediocre education system in England, (based on unreliable international tests) which is damaging to the nation's international competitiveness and failing to produce well rounded contributing citizens. The book attempts to examine how this nightmare came to pass? Surely, all the billions spent and all the wisdom applied to the problems of education should have added up to more than mediocre? We were promised a meritocratic society and all we have is a few people doing rather well for themselves.
