Well said Steve Mastin. Grammar schools do *not* increase parent choice. They reduce it, for c80% of the population. The grammar school does the choosing. To any advocate of selection at 11, I say: give me your argument for secondary moderns.

👏 @Ruth_Ashbee brilliantly articulates what goes wrong when schools ask pupils to articulate professional devices or design, supposedly to prove impact. A curriculum's effects are necessarily indirect. Just get on and teach. Let the substance do its work in changing the child.
