Slide2The wisdom of Michael Gove
“WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE AN EDUCATED PERSON?”
TRUTH IS BEAUTY AND BEAUTY IS TRUTH
Parents, it is sometimes alleged, don't want choice in education. Well, many of us here are parents - so let me pose some choices.
You come home to find your 17-year-old daughter engrossed in a book. Which would delight you more - if it were Twilight or Middlemarch
?
You see your son is totally absorbed, hunched over the family laptop. You steal a look over his shoulder - and what would please you more - to see him playing Angry Birds, or coding?
