Quote: TURFEDOUT "Personally don't think this was a mess up based on the Tories having an agenda.
Think it was just a complete mess.
The home nations have their own control over education,Williamson only has jurisdiction over England.
Looks like all four nations(with different controlling assemblies across the political spectrum) adopted the same problematic algorithm.
Not an excuse for the algorithm,but putting into context that neither Tories/Labour/SNP or UUP saw this coming ??'"
I agree, nothing to do with them having an agenda, just abject incompetence.
Even the Tory press are appalled at the mis handling of this one.
The fact that it was kids from state schools that have come out of this worse, just gives the press and angle from which to write their articles.
As for no one seeing this coming, it beggars belief, it rally does
