Education Reform

Education Standards are Falling

Many people would be better off learning a useful trade. Skills that will pay them throughout their working life. We need to connect our education system with industry to address the workforce shortages we face.

Many developing countries have education systems that puts ours to shame. While we are busy deleting our past and attempting to rewrite history, many developing countries are teaching their children how to compete against us. How to read and write high quality English (thankfully for us the dominant international language).

The next generation is, because of the decisions of our education administrators, heading towards a day of reckoning when they will sadly be found wanting.

On Education,

Let’s invest more wisely in young people: university students are being ripped off with high fees often for just online learning. Many degree courses could be done in 2 years not 3 years, which would save students many thousands of pounds.

• We would scrap interest rates on student loans and extend the capital repayment period, which will improve the debt recovery rate.

• We would introduce a new workable apprenticeship scheme. We have to be honest that many young people would be better off learning whilst in work, rather than accruing debt at university.

• Our schools and pupils need better technology to give them the best chances as we help prepare them for life. Covid has changed so much. Our children learn best in school and never again must we shut them, forcing children to learn from home for weeks on end.

• Schools must focus on the basics of teaching every child to read and write.

• Teachers must be free to teach pupils how to think, not what to think, without fear of the woke police or religious persecution.

• We must keep divisive woke ideologies such as Critical Race Theory (CRT) and gender ideology out of the classroom.

Sex education should also always be age-appropriate
