Never mind. It is a dictatorship because corrupt western governments say it is and 'left-wingers' currying favour will fall into line. Fuck 'em. I support the Cuban people and their government - it's not a dictatorship, it is a country living under permanent threat from the world hyperpower and subjected to regular economic, political and military attack, including from state sponsored terrorism.
What the right want, and won't get, is multi-party elections that they can fund and corrupt. The Cuban people aren't that stupid and have learnt enough these last fifty years not to be bought by their enemies.

Remember that old "Asian countries do well in PISA tests therefore we need to visit their countries and copy their schools"?
Well...maybe there's more going on there than that simplistic line.

Well...maybe there's more going on there than that simplistic line.
http://johnjerrim.com/2014/10/09/why-do ... l-at-pisa/
How much did all those jollies cost I wonder?What are the implications of these findings for us here in the UK? Well, every time international assessments like PISA are released, we hear about the lessons to be learned from the high performing East Asian economies. This has led to us comparing our curriculum to those in Singapore and Hong Kong (https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/s ... -RR178.pdf" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;), and sending delegations to observe teaching methods in East Asian schools (https://www.gov.uk/government/news/expe ... s-in-maths" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;).
Yet many of the key reasons why East Asian children excel are cultural, and therefore beyond the control of schools. Therefore, what PISA 2012 really teaches us is that parents and familial culture matter a great deal, and that our middling performance in such international comparisons captures a lot more than just the ‘performance’ of our education system, teachers and schools.

How has he got caught up in it? Because their whole ethos is that silly things like rules don't apply to people like them! Cameron's attitude here is just another example of my pet hobby horse, the politicisation of the Civil Service, which is something Labour are going to have to deal with if they come to office next year. Congratulations have to go to Nick Timothy and Stephen Parkinson for displaying principles & backbone and also (this said through gritted teeth) to Mrs May for actually doing the right thing for once in her life.TechnicalEphemera wrote:How exactly has Cameron allowed himself to be caught up in something so petty?

but wait. The local MP thinks everything is in hand.A TROUBLED school has been placed into special measures after receiving the lowest rating of ‘inadequate’ during its latest Ofsted inspection.
The performance of St Aldhelm’s Academy in Herbert Avenue, Poole, which was inspected in October, has been described as having ‘declined substantially since the previous inspection’ in October 2012 and rated then as ‘requiring improvement’.
which roughly translates as "I haven't got a clue but am hoping for the best"Conor Burns, Bournemouth West MP, said: “This is a bad report and there’s no disguising that reality. However, it’s not unpredictable.
“I’m confident that the urgent measures necessary to turn around the situation at St Aldhelm’s are already well advanced and will become clear in the weeks and months ahead.”
