Should your Child start school at.........?


Report today says that children should start 'Real ' Education at 6, I started at 5, my daughters started at 4 my grandchildren started at 3. Why?

My view is that education (other than Home) should start around 4-5, and end between 14 and 18 (other than at Uni or college).

Of course some would say that the School leaving age should be 18, but the that would reduce the unemployment figures.

The future


At the Pavilion today TDC held a public event to find out peoples views for the future of Thanet.

Seems they want the airport to succeed, the harbour to prosper, and Westwood Cross to go forward. Jobs for the young and homes for locals. I feel heartened by real people.

Joint Working +

Went to a meeting today in maidstone to put your view forward. I have to say I was disappointed. Lots of 'Buzz' words, lots of officers who want 'central' control. Me I am horrified, Entire plot seems to be taking away 'control from local people. I will oppose.
