Unfortunately, with degrees in Media Studies and Aromatherapy, what is being taking out of the system is the p***.

Education should be a partnership between the home and the school. We should teach children to the best of their ability, whatever that ability. We should also teach them to fill out forms, how to cope with society, and that every right carries a responsibility. Too many people know their rights, too few appreciate their responsibilities. Whatever your culture, it is not an excuse not to subscribe to the system. Children have come from appalling backgrounds and have gone on to make a success, academic or otherwise, of their lives. However, that was when schools still had sanctions, when there was a culture of respect for teachers and other adults. We need to teach that, and that should start in the home ... by the age of 5, it is already getting to be too late.

What is vital is to educate the next generation to be responsible and caring parents - otherwise we have a self-perpetuating culture of lack of respect and lack of achievement.
