This may seem an odd statement but the more i am on this site the more i realise i dont think i was actually taught anything at school.
Everything i have learned has been since i left school i really think the 12 years of formal education i recieved were useless.
As for this site my grammar,punctuation,spelling vocabulary have improved immeasurable since i have been on this site.
This post is thank you to mumsnet as much as a question as to why did i recieve such a poor education 25-30 years ago.
This post is also in response to the just published report that states literacy and numeracy in the U.K has not improved though out the last 25 years,this i found odd . The reason i found the report odd is that when i look at the work my 19 yr niece and 17yr old newphew did in yr10/11 it was far more challenging than anything i or any of my friends did. Maybe this is because they were both at grammar schools i dont no.
