There's been a lot of criticism of Theresa May's intention to re-introduce grammar schools in the false hope of making everyone 'equal', but why?
Every kid is different with different abilities and the socialist dream of dumbing down education in order to make everyone inclusive is holding back kids with talent who need to be stretched to develop their potential.
I never passed the 11 plus but I do not resent other kids who did and had the talent to go on to a grammar school. The fact is that you cannot 'Nanny State' people into achieving educational success if they are not commited themselves and the idea that we should all live in a society that does not discriminate in terms of ambition and ability is ludicrous.
I wish people would look into subjects rather than just accept the propaganda peddled by politicians and some parts of the media.
A Google search of 'grammar school research' will provide a list to help look into the subject of grammar schools.
I am not interested enough to have a continued discussion about the subject.
