Comprehensives Conspire Against 'Working Class' Children.

From: Rodney Atkinson, Meadowfield Road, Stocksfield, Northumberland. Yorks Post.
I DON’T believe that Ed Miliband’s comprehensive school in middle class North London was anything like the equivalent in Newcastle or Sheffield. Like Shirley Williams who sent her daughter to a comprehensive school in Holland Park or Tony Blair who sent his children to a high performing Catholic school these well located London “ordinary schools” have unique catchment areas, determined by those who can afford local house prices.
That is the privileged world 
that Labour created by abolishing the grammar school – elitism 
not by ability but by location. 
And socialist politicians knew then and know now where to locate to.

Sorry Folks.
