Kids of parents who had a poor education themselves often likely not to have the home life or educational support that means they pass tests
-
But that's not an argument to not have tests, it's an argument for different measures of intelligence & better primary education & parenting

How do you measure intelligence without using tools that will be to the detriment of poorer families?

And if you can improve primary education without making it selective why not just do the same for secondaries?

So bureaucrats will be able to sort out schools with needs of multiple levels of capabilities and not just bring everyone down to one level?
