Anotace knihy

The purpose of this Paperback is to start a debate about the real problem of how we should educate our young people. It is based on the book `Chance of a Lifetime: How the other half losesż by Jonathan Langdale and John Harrison. To be winners today, young people have to be `good at schoolż (or very lucky). Clearly, a great many of them arenżt `good at schoolż, but we believe they are all good at something. Because the Great and the Good became the Great and the Good because they were `good at schoolż, the received wisdom is that their kind of academic schooling is good for everyone ż it must be! Look how successful they are! Thus the `best schoolsż must be facsimiles of their schools and schoolchildren must all be judged by their standards ż the gold standards of GCSE A*-C and `Aż Levels followed by university. If only everyone was as academically clever as they are, wouldnżt the world be a better place? And the children who fail at their kind of schooling are just that ż failures. Over the years we have blamed the failure of secondary education on: żThe governors żThe head teachers żThe teachers and above allż żThe pupils. `Chance of a Lifetimeż shows that: żIt isnżt the governors żIt isnżt the head teachers żIt isnżt the teachers and żIt certainly isnżt the pupils Itżs the academically focussed secondary school itself.
