The Unemployed Young
February 17, 2011These figures rightly cause dismay. They are the worst in Europe. That is humiliating. They are also the product of the outrageous outcome to all the years of ideological meddling in education by misguided politicians and crackpot academics.
It does not matter what you call schools or how you organise them, whether Academy, Comprehensive, Faith, or Free. What matters is that the national average of the state sector is that fewer than half the students can obtain a basic (c) pass in five subjects including English and Mathematics at GCSE. A good number go on to get degrees which are useless in the labour market and shunned by employers. Put this right and all else will follow.
Fail to do so and nothing will work, least of all the young. A country which wastes the most precious resource it has, the rising generation, will neither be successful, nor deserve to succeed.
Superb blog post. I used to be checking continuously to this website & I’m so impressed! Extremely educational info, especially the first few part. I really want this kind of knowledge. I used to be looking for this particular info for a very long. Thankx & best wishes.
I would like to thnkx for the efforts you’ve put in writing this blog. I’m hoping the same high-grade website post from you in the upcoming as well. Actually your creative writing abilities has inspired me to get my own site now. Really the blogging is spreading its wings rapidly. Your write up is a good example of it.
I wish to show thanks to this writer just for bailing me out of such a difficulty. Just after checking throughout the online world and meeting proposals which are not pleasant, I figured my entire life was well over. Existing without the presence of answers to the issues you have resolved by means of your report is a crucial case, and the ones that would have adversely damaged my entire career if I had not come across your website. Your personal knowledge and kindness in playing with the whole thing was very useful. I don’t know what I would have done if I hadn’t encountered such a thing like this. It’s possible to at this point look ahead to my future. Thanks very much for your specialized and sensible guide. I won’t be reluctant to endorse the sites to any individual who requires direction on this area.
