The Animal School

A Parable

Once upon a time the animals decided they must do something decisive to meet the increasing complexity of their society. They held a meeting and fi- nally decided to organize a school. The curriculum consisted of running, swimming and flying. Since these were the basic behaviors of most animals, they decided that all the students should take all of the subjects.

The duck proved to be excellent at swimming, better in fact than his teacher. He also did well in flying, but he proved to be very poor in running. Since he was poor in this subject he was made to stay after school to practice it and even had to drop swimming in order to get more time in which to practice running. He was kept at this poorest subject until his webbed feet were so badly damaged that he became only average at swimming. But average was acceptable in the school so nobody worried about that - except the duck.

The rabbit started at the top of his class in running, but finally had a nervous breakdown because of so much make-up time in swimming – a subject he hated.

The squirrel was excellent in climbing until he developed psychological blocking in flying class when the teacher insisted he start from the ground instead of from the tops of the trees. He was kept at attempting to fly until he became muscle bound – and received a C in climbing and a D in running.

The eagle was the school’s worst discipline problem, in climbing class he beat all of the others to the top of the tree used for examination purposes in this subject, but he insisted on using his own method of getting there.

The gophers of course, stayed out of the school and fought the tax levied for education because digging was not included in the curriculum. They apprenticed their children to the badger and later joined the ground hogs and eventually started a private school offering alternative education.

To make the evaluation fair, the task will be the same for everyone: you are to climb to the top of that tree!

NEWS IN BRIEF

CBI COMPLAINS

OF ‘EXAM FACTORY’ SCHOOLS

Business leaders say some UK schools have become “exam factories” and are calling for children to be given a broader education.

The Confederation of British Industry is calling for radical changes to schools. It says there is too much focus on exams at 16 and that should be switched to 18, with more emphasis on skills people need for life and work. It calls for schools inspectors and league tables to look beyond exam results. But it says improved attainment would boost the UK’s economic growth.

The CBI, the employers’ organisation, made the recommendations in a report released at the start of its annual conference.

Its director general John Cridland said: “In some cases secondary schools have become an exam factory. Qualifications are important, but we also need people who have self-discipline and serve customers well. As well as academic rigour, we need schools to produce rounded and grounded young people who have the skills and behaviours that businesses want.”

The business leaders say their report is for the UK as a whole, but power over education is devolved from Westminster and policies and exams taken differ. Some of their recommendations relate most closely to schools in England, where Education Secretary Michael Gove is overhauling the school system, including exams.

On GCSEs, he has mainly focussed on toughening the exams, encouraging pupils to study more academic subjects, and calling for a higher percentage of pupils to score the benchmark five good GCSEs, rather than downplaying their importance.

This, however, is something the Labour education team is considering as part of a wider package of reforms.

Mr Cridland told journalists the CBI was not criticising government policies – or teachers.

“Government reforms are heading in the right direction, but are not sufficient on their own and must go further and faster,” he said.

The report backs England’s academy programme – where schools are encouraged to take on more independence - but is also critical. It attacks what it calls the “cult of the average”, saying 40% of young people are underachieving while the top 10% are not being stretched enough.

The report says UK schools have had 35 years of “piecemeal reforms” and the result has been a “gentle upswing in performance”, judged by international benchmarks, but also a “long tail of low achievement”.

In England, from 2015, young people will be expected to stay in education or training until they are 18 and the CBI says the focus should be switching more towards exams at 18, with improved vocational A-levels. All children should study English and maths until that age, it recommends, which is in line with Labour proposals.

A spokesman for the Department for Education said: “The CBI rightly recognises the importance of English and maths, calls for greater rigour in the curriculum and in exams, welcomes the academy programme, wants a new accountability system and backs greater freedom for teachers.”

Association of School and College Leaders general secretary Brian Lightman said the report highlighted the pressing need for a long term strategy for our education system, which will provide the stability school and college leaders require in order to embed sustainable improvements.

However the CBI’s claim that the UK has slipped down international league tables is misleading and statistically inaccurate as made clear by the Chair of the UK Statistics Authority and other reports.”
