Summer learning

If summer schools will help gifted and talented pupils in England to "meet their potential", why do most of them have to pay fees for the courses!?!

Grammar schools would help "gifted and talented pupils" "meet their potential" throughout the rest of the year regardless of where they live, their background or their parental income!

Another way of milking the cash cow known as the British taxpayer.

If someone is gifted in kicking a ball or running and skipping in a pastime that involves wearing lycra.... there is shedloads of Lottery money available.
But not, it seems, for anything useful.

Man of Kent, I bet the schemes are free in Scotland and Wales!

Haddock, there is no celebrity in being able to do anything useful!
