“Jonathan Gems will not be alone in wondering if our country is heading down the plughole, but unlike the rest of us he has done something about it and has written an analysis of our education system.

Mr. Gems, by occupation a screenwriter, brings an outsider’s perspective to the matter. This may be another way of saying that he lacks the “expertise” of a schoolmaster or an educationalist, but we have probably had quite enough “expertise” on education policy to last us many years. Is it not the educationalists, with their elaborate theories and their social engineering, who are to blame for many of the ruinous changes in our schools?

This jaunty book… burns with concern and it wrenches hold of an issue which must trouble any civilised mind.”
Quentin Letts

“All members of those small, specialist groups with an interest in education (I’m talking about minority groups such as teachers, parents, children and people without children) should be given a copy of Bad Education and not allowed to get on with the rest of their lives until they’ve passed an exam to show that they’ve not only read it but understood just how bad things have become; why they’re so terrible, and that we need to do things fast if there is to be a sliver of hope that our world won’t fall apart… Education in Britain is – like everything else – a mess. Jonathan Gems has sorted out the questions and provided more of the answers than any of the education experts.”
Vernon Coleman
