Virtually every time our Secretary of State for Children, Schools and Families opens his mouth what comes out lives up to his surname.
Discounting the allegation that children would learn about Twitter at the expense of learning about the Victorians and Tudors Balls went on to say that children would be taught a "chronology of events" - whatever the hell that means!
Following a review carried out by Sir Jim Rose, plans intend that 'traditional subjects' are to be merged into 'broad areas of learning', whilst more time would be made available for the study of new technology, including blogging, podcasts and using websites such as Wikipedia.
It is not surprising that such hare-brained schemes are being proposed by someone who has never taught, has not the slightest idea how to teach but whose nose seems to be covered with a -albeit invisible - brown stain.
