And to say that the Conservatives are the BEST party in England

Tories may allow schools to select by race

Some schools would be allowed to select pupils by race under plans being drawn up by the Conservatives.


 
David Willetts, the shadow education secretary, has told colleagues he wants to enable the most popular city academies to choose pupils not by ability but by a range of other criteria.

The most controversial of those would allow schools in ethnically diverse areas to take 50 per cent of pupils from the black community and 50 per cent from the white.

The race quota would be welcomed by inner-city schools eager to improve integration. But it would be bound to infuriate traditional Tories still reeling from David Cameron's decision to rule out building more grammar schools. Instead, the Tory leader pledged a vast expansion in Tony Blair's city academies programme.

One problem raised by Tory opponents of the scheme is the question of how a Conservative government would handle the desire of parents to send their children to the most successful academies.

Mr Willetts is looking at selection by "banding", the controversial system by which pupils are tested and placed in ability bands. Schools are then given set numbers for each band.

One senior Tory source explained: "We are aware that some city academies would be more popular than others. That's why David [Willetts] made clear in his speech how it would be possible for the best ones to expand or even to set up additional academies themselves.

"The existing banding system would work. But there would also be city academies that chose pupils on the basis of faith. And you could have academies where there was selection by ethnicity."

Today, a senior member of the shadow cabinet rumoured to have concerns on schools policy breaks his silence to back Mr Cameron.

In an article in this newspaper, Liam Fox, the shadow defence secretary, says: "Grammars represent only a tiny number of our schools. We need to try to replicate their successful recipe in under-performing schools."
 

David Willets: How UGLY

[ftf]

I thought David Cameron was someone who was approaching sanity, looks like I was wrong...

[Nic Brookes]

At least this is getting front page coverage on a major national newspaper.

But this is awful! There is no serious alternative to the Tories in the UK!

[fjack]

He looks like a sissy. Is he a rump wrangler?

[Nic Brookes]

Quite possibly. I feel ill just thinking about him.

[ftf]

Wait, this is coming from David Willets, not Cameron, there is still hope.

And to say that the Conservatives are the BEST party in England

These so called conservatives are nothing more than puppets on the same payroll as the socialist liberal labour communists. They all work for the same bosses, they really have no say they are just front men and women for the true power of the human race....the rulers of the planet who control the real wealth....the masses of humanity....by the few. David Cameron is just another young punk being politically correct to appease the already far gone British public. The system needs another face, someone young and new to [censored] the already brainwashed public into believing another made up set of lies, to once again appease the fools most are, a way to extract the maximum amount of taxes from the brainwashed public without them being aware of the fact they are total arseholes. These people are taking all for the ride of their lives, with no return ticket! The only way out for the human race is to change the way we exist today.The world is controlled by a small fraction of very rich and cruel people, people who in fact care not a [censored] for any living thing except themselves and their offspring scum......ever heard of Paris Hilton? Pure unadulterated, uneducated slut slime drowning in her pond of insecurity and stolen wealth, unable to fathom the bottom from the top. The little [censored] needs a leasson in real life, then she will perhaps understand true reality.

Why are the Conservative party the best party in England? Because that rosy cheeked arsehole said that the anc should never have been branded terrorists by Margaret Thatcher? His statement just goes to show his real true colors, he is just another [censored] controlled communist hiding behind "democracy", doing the bidding of his royal masters and "elite" scum of the earth, if he doesn't he will be another pile of manure on the heap of [censored] that the curse has already heaped so high they cannot find a hole deep enough to bury it in. holy Christ, when is humanity going to wake up?

Western civilization is in the Emergency room with the electrical paddles on it's chest we need to get the pulse back.  Before the flatline will show up on the west.  Third worlders are a disaster to modernized nations.
