THE Government has surely lost the plot on education. They have recently began talking about introducing single sex education. However, they are talking about this at the same time as putting single sex grammar schools under threat of closure, such as the two in Lancaster.
Having opposed all forms of selection in the past, they now want selection by gender.
When will this Government stop this heavy-handed interfering approach to education and telling teachers what to do?
