Synopsis

Opinions about comprehensive education are often made into sound-bites by the media and politicians. Whilst the benefits of a comprehensive education for all pupils are obvious, untruths have unwittingly evolved into hard facts. As part of the Local Schools Network, Benn and Downs are challenging myths about state education and have meticulously built an argument for its still enormously vital role. Anyone who thinks that comprehensive education has failed, that local authority control holds back schools, that competition & markets are the route to educational success and private schools hold the magic DNA will have their beliefs altered by this articulate and rigorously-evidenced book.
