"Britain has nosedived down the world education league despite billions of pounds of extra spending on schools, an international study revealed yesterday.
The findings are the third in a week to highlight falling education standards in a country with a schools budget that has risen to more than £50billion a year.
Our schools now stand at 24th in a table of teenagers' achievement in maths, level with Poland and down from eighth in six years. "
[All this of course, in the week they are claiming record SATS results.]
