The Conservatives have set out plans which they say will ensure children can read by the age of six.

Shadow schools secretary Michael Gove said English assessments for six and seven year olds should be replaced with a standard reading test.

But primary school head teachers have warned against formal tests for young children saying exams could put them off reading “for a very long time”.

Schools Secretary Ed Balls said the plans were “hastily cobbled together”.
Chris Davis of the National Primary Headteachers’ Association (NPHA) said the tests would come “too early”.

“One of the worst things you can do with a very young child is give them the impression that they can’t do something,” he added.

Children packaged up as good middle-class capitalist crime-haters by 10, say conservatives.

Anyone not at this stage will be sentenced to a long time in prison.

Let’s destroy the working class.

Drug takers to be shot.

etc. etc.

Fucking pricks. Mind you, Labour aren’t much better nowadays.
