Too many state schools in Britain in 2010 have become factories. Results (at least on paper) have improved. But at what cost? Reluctant students are processed through a system which is closely controlled and monitored by the state. No area of public life is more important than education to prepare people to live meaningful, productive and valuable lives. Yet our schools turn out young people who are often incapable of living full and autonomous lives. Anthony Seldon has written more than 25 books but here is a poignant booklet of 90 pages which is “an education manifesto 2010-2020” as relevant today as when he wrote it. Our book is shown as a photograph in very good condition. Author has signed a dedication on the inside title page.
