Education, Education, Education…

Following on from the problems in Orpington last week , it seems even the government is losing patience with further education: The government has banned the largest sponsor of academies from taking on new schools until it dramatically improve the ones it already runs , the Guardian has learned. A welcome change to the usual tactic of shovelling even more money into the coffers regardless… The...

Kids will get cash boost from lessons

Ed Balls' announcement on Thursday that personal finance lessons will become compulsory for kids from 2011 should raise a cheer in homes across the country. The Secretary of State for Children, Schools and Families said personal finance will be taught as part of the PSHE (Personal, Social and Health Education) programme in secondary schools, currently optional. "All young people should learn...

The Facts of Life

Earlier this week, Ed Balls, the Education Secretary (that isn't what he calls himself but it is essentially what he is) announced that 15 year olds will have to have mandatory sex education. Cue howls of anguish from the likes of the Catholic Church and various Muslim groups who promised to fight the proposals. Now I am no fan of Mr Balls, as a very cursory inspection of this site will quickly reveal....

Whose authority?

By Justin Thacker, Guardian When is a right not a right? When it concerns the education of children. The respective (and entirely contradictory) decisions of the children’s secretary Ed Balls and the European Court of Human Rights this week would be laughable if they weren’t both so serious. In the first place, Ed Balls tells us that [...]

New proposals for sex-ed - dictatorship of relativism

You can read the CESEW response to the Governments latest proposals on sex education in schools, and a clarification which states: We welcome the government’s reiteration of its support for the important principles underlining SRE, which emphasise that schools continue to have the legal right to determine the content of what is taught in PSHE within their schools and that governing bodies retain...

Ridiculous rules for home schools | Annabel Wynne

My six-year-old daughter is educated by me, at home. Are we about to become the state's latest scapegoats? Today, I received a copy of a letter that my local MP sent to the education secretary, Ed Balls. This letter was prompted by my concerns about the Badman report , a review into home-education which was submitted in June and immediately accepted by Balls. The government may implement these recommendations...

Mandatory sex lessons for every 15-year-old

The Times: Sex education is to be made compulsory for all pupils, prompting fury from faith groups which said that the move would contravene the right for children to be educated in accordance with their parents’ beliefs. All 15-year-olds must receive at least one year of sex and relationship lessons, Ed Balls, the [...]

My trade union to oppose Government proposals on sex education?

The General Secretary of my trade union has a little paragraph in The Times today - utterly illogical and rather muddled it is, to say the least. I rather suspect that the leaders of other teacher unions were a bit more savvy than she was, and did not let themselves get drawn in to commenting. With one of the highest teenage pregnancy rates in Europe, whatever we are doing at the moment we are not...
