He writes from Moscow?

Say what you like about the FSU. At least it protected the gifted.

In this c*ntry the educational establishment would shoot the gifted if they thought they could get away with it.

Rigour in education is incompatible with the dependency culture which the Labour Party seeks to extend indefinitely.

I think TP may exaggerate the extent to which classroom indoctrination is effective, but even that may be a moot point.

With 30%, and sinking, of maths and physics teachers having a degree in the subject, the day is fast approaching when the only thing this c*ntry will be able to export competitively will be trash culture.
