Michael Gove
If we are to make the most of the opportunities ahead we need a bold break with the past.
Michael Gove
Children themselves know they are being cheated. Ultimately we owe it to our children. They are in school for 190 days a year. Every moment they spend learning is precious. If a year goes by and they are not being stretched and excited, that blights their life.
Michael Gove
Teachers themselves know if there's a colleague who can't keep control or keep the interest of their class, it affects the whole school.
Michael Gove

Michael Gove
I have a different starting premise from those 100 academics who are so heavily invested in the regime of low expectations and narrow horizons which they have created.
Michael Gove
