Guardian Bookshop Notes:

Subtitled, "The Damaging Treadmill Of School Tests". An informed attack on the obsession with tests and exams in schools.

Publisher's description:

It sounded a noble aim, for New Labour to prioritise education, education, education. The method they chose since coming to power was a relentless attempt to raise standards by an obsession with tests and exams in every school, almost at every age level. This work reveals how intention and practice widely differ.
