England : Education and Politics

Tristram Hunt, the Shadow Education Secretary :
Teachers should be licensed in order to stay in the profession, and that a Royal College of Teaching be set up.

Shadow Education Secretary Tristram Hunt told the BBC: “If you're not a motivated teacher - passionate about your subject, passionate about being in the classroom - then you shouldn't really be in this profession.”

Long commentaire d'Alex Ford
« Tory education "policy" has been so fast paced and erratic that teachers have been placed very much on the back foot. We find ourselves constantly under attack - we are on the defensive and want to hit back. We demand an end to Gove's meddling. »
