The backlash to dumbing down in education begins?
The backlash against dumbing down (DD) seems to be taking shape. University academics have presented a 500 page dossier to an MPs' inquiry complaining about DD and Manchester Grammar is pulling out of GCSEs because of DD. Where this will end up nobody knows but action needs to happen.
Imagine how in 2048 - when a lot of today's graduates will be hitting retirement age - this generation will reflect back on what we did to our education system in the 90s and noughties...
...and they'll be stymied because they won't have the analytical tools to work out where it all went wrong.
It's WUC time. WAKE UP CALL!
