Michael Gove Pledges 10-Hour School Days - February 5th 2014, 04:47 PM
I'm sorry but this is bloody ridiculous. It should be about the quality of learning, not quantity. If I had children and they were forced to go to school for 10 hours per day I would seriously consider homeschooling. They won't be able to concentrate that well because they'll be knackered.

The main reason Private schools do so well is because they have more funding.

I also don't like him talking about poor behaviour as opposed to good behaviour. Why don't we focus on good behaviour more?

Teachers work enough as it is.
