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?

The right wing ever judgemental on others, think they know it all, that is what finished me with them, arrogant contempt. -
-
That's the opposite of contempt. Those are some of the reasons why poorer kids do worse at school. Contempt would be saying they are thick.
-
You have just shown contempt by saying poorer kids do worse at school, again sweeping statements from the right. -
