How the Conservatives are ruining/running education

Yesterday the Conservatives finally issued the manifesto for the upcoming election. The pledge to remove school lunches and to replace them with breakfasts is interesting. In an age of austerity where children arrive at school hungry, at first look, this appears to be a good idea.  But, despite protestations from the Conservatives, this could make things even worse for our schools.  The Conservatives say that the education budget has been protected and that we have more teachers than before, but our schools face huge teacher shortages which harms the education of our next generation.  And a redistribution of funds also is to cause major headaches for many schools. Before, when teacher shortages were in the news, grammar schools have been in the news to distract people.  Anyway, the post from a head teacher was shared by my wife on Facebook earlier today.  The school that our children go to is facing similar issues and has written to parents asking more money to reduce the cuts that they are going to have to make.  Many parents at our school can afford a few pounds.  This is not the case with parents in schools elsewhere though.

God knows how the Conservatives are going to distract us if they get elected as things get worse.
