We Don't Want No Education

Many very good schools have teachers who have no formal teaching qualification. They are just very good teachers. This is to be extended by government decree and has the teaching Unions howling with outrage, though over what they seem a little vague.

Clearly though the objection, as ever, is about Union power. If they control teacher training (which is used for Left ideological propaganda) and then maintain a grip on teachers, they are powerful. If this stranglehold is broken, then so potentially is their power. You will notice that the interests of the child haven't cropped up anywhere.

The Unions of course say that no formal qualification means a lack of ability (I wonder if Beckham ever thought to get a 'formal qualification' in ball kicking?) and so children will be educated to a lower standard. It seems unlikely that the perfect storm combination of Tony Blair and the NUT could ever be bettered for lowering standards. Children in this country deserve better and Christine Blower deserves to be unemployed.
