Robbing pupils of individuality - is that not where we are heading also?


A recent article claims that pupils in China are being robbed of their individuality by their 12 hour school day and rote learning.  Are we not producing our own version by punishing pupils and teachers if OfSTED cannot see improvement in every minute of every lesson even if that child cannot cope?  Today's children are far more stressed and anxious than during my school days in the 50's and 60's, and my generation didn't do too badly as we rebuilt Britain after the Second World War.
