Education Reform

Whatever your views on education in the UK, there is no denying that we are churning out school leavers that are not as well prepared to enter the workplace as they were 30 – 40 years ago.

We need to reform the curriculum so that we are preparing the next generation and giving them the tools they need to succeed.

We need to teach our children how to think, and stop telling them what to think.
