How to stop the destruction of the education system

It is becoming increasingly clear that I am right when I have said that the government should never be allowed to control essential services like education, health and policing. Governments of the last 60 years have done everything to destroy those services. Whether they meant to or not is simply irrelevant. These services must be protected for future generations so even if you have a government now that gets these systems in good shape you cannot guarantee that they will be in good shape in the future when future governments take over.

I have stated many times what I think should happen to those services. You can read it here. Please read the education part because the rest of this blog post will be about the education system.

The education of our children has been so dumbed down that they can now pass with just 30% of the marks. Not content with doing that they want to go further and introduce lessons that are only 5 minutes long. Have you ever heard such nonsense?

They don’t want to stop at just the destruction of lessons they also want to destroy our history. They want to stop our children from ever knowing about the triumphs of Britain, they want to stop them from knowing the history of Britain. How can you teach history without referring to Churchill and Hitler? Well that’s what the government want to do. It seems that lessons in feelings will be much more important.

If the government is allowed to control the education system it will be impossible to stop them from destroying the education system even if they don’t mean too. The government just can’t resist micromanaging these things. Even if we had a government which didn’t do all that the education system is just a short way from disaster as any government can take over.

The only way to have a successful education system is by handing the responsibility to an elected education commission who have experience within the education system and not leave it with people most of whom have probably never worked in the education system so have no idea what they are doing.

Even if a few of the education destroyers were elected it would not affect the rest of the nation as each county would have their own. Once parents realise that they have made a bad choice they can reverse it. It is not as simple as that with governments. When electing governments you do not consider just one aspect so even if they are doing terrible within the education system you will vote for them anyway, whether it’s because they are doing well with everything else they do or you simply voted for them because your parents voted for them and their parents voted for them. With one area of policy it is not as simple as that. Would you vote for a member of your own party even if he was destroying education? I know I wouldn’t. I would be just as likely to vote liberal as I would BNP in the circumstances of one policy area.
