"It is Never about the Kids..."

Doubling Teacher Pay Does Nothing to Improve Student Performance

"Doubling teachers wages had zero impact on either "teacher effort or student learning outcomes."
Given that teachers' unions fight for the kids, I'm sure they'll be pushing for lower salaries so there's more cash for textbooks and after-school programs."  Peter St. Onge

A good thing to keep in mind during the upcoming Town Hall Meeting Season.  Other studies have shown there is no correlation between student performance and teacher pay.

Teacher versus Union

I really hope this teacher wins.  Our Country was founded on the rights of the individual.   Unions are the antithesis to individual and individual rights.  I am really rooting for Rebecca Friedrichs a teacher from California.  To learn more to go Heartland.org.

School Choice is about Giving Children Oppurtunities

Some people complain about some children in Croydon receiving a Montessori education. Don't our children deserve an education fit for a prince.  It is still a tax funded public education, the only difference is that parents have chosen what is best for their children.  That is an education fit for a prince afforded to the common man because of school choice.

Croydon

An excellent education chosen by parents.

Prince George to attend Westacre Montessori School Nursery

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have announced the nursery Prince George is to attend alongside the release of a new photograph of their family.

The two-year-old will go to the Westacre Montessori School Nursery in Norfolk from January.
A nursery spokesman said: "We are looking forward to welcoming George to our nursery."

The nursery, near King's Lynn, is close to the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge's home, Anmer Hall.

The BBC's royal correspondent Peter Hunt said the duke and duchess appreciate what they see as the care being shown by the British media around the privacy of their children, Prince George and Princess Charlotte, and are grateful for the public's support in respecting the privacy of their young family.

He said the couple would be pleased George's new nursery was sited in a private road, not a public one.
