A report in the Independent today suggests
Pupils struggle to master basic maths and English
"Figures show that 500 of the country's 2,900 state secondary schools fail to get more than 25 per cent of their pupils to achieve five A* to C grade passes at GCSE including maths and English. In the worst performing school - Temple in Strood, Kent - only 2 per cent of pupils reach the benchmark."
I disagree I think the rise in A grades is testiment to the hard work and diligence of today's youth.... Check out the intelligence in this:
"Beethoven wrote music even though he was deaf. He was so deaf he wrote loud music. He took long walks in the forest even when everyone was calling for him. Beethoven expired in 1827 and later died of this."
- During the Renaissance, history began. Christopher Columbus was a great navigator who discovered America whilst cursing about the Atlantic. His ships were called the Nina, the Pinta, and the Santa Fe.
- The sun never set on the British Empire because the British Empire is in the East and the sun sets in the West.
