     Hi Kwikbitch and your profession please 
 no prizes then
 My experience is following my daughters progression through the system and going to 99% of all parent evenings having teachers as friends and debating said arguments and my wife having been a caretaker of a school for 6 years and dealing with both teachers and pupils.  
 please tell me if education is not being dumb'd down why science is now merged into one lump when clearly if you need doctors/vets etc they need basic grounding in specific sciences not some overview that falls short of the knowledge they need to take A level sciences.
 and one wonders why there is such a huge drop out rate in the sciences and that most sucsseful pupils come from the private sector.
