Try this one: http://www.guardian.co.uk/education/poll/2...16/sats.schools 87.1% Yes When testing and league tables were introduced by the Tories, Labour opposed them. Once in power, Labour have extended their use. It is clear from the interviews with ministers that they have no understanding of what education is all about. Education ministers in Wales and Scotland were quick to remove SATs once they got independence from London. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
