Class sizes still high

Despite all of the money that has been pumped into the education department and regardless of what anyone may say. Class sizes in the UK are still too large. In fact class sizes in the UK are actually the largest in the developed world, which is not a very nice place to be.

Out of all of the countries that were surveyed by The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) only six other countries - Japan, South Korea, Turkey, Brazil, Chile and Israel - have more children in primary school lessons.

Clearly ten years it not nearly enough to create an education dept that we can all be proud of, how this will ever be resolved is probably unknown.
