Frank, to be fee is one thing, but in England (a small Island) life is but that, schools are taking in around 30 student that have no English each term which finally the government has decided is a problem at least 3 teachers plus support staff have to be allocated and if these kids come from families that are not shall we say giving back to the coffers then its a strain - and I actually welcome the changes - there will still be an exchange of people from around the world but it will benefit England and if that sounds selfish, then I am selfish.
Selfish....selfish?????...nnnnnnnoooooooooooooooooo
Me thinks the vast majority of children here, whose parents are working( contributing, paying taxes, not breaking the law) then they are entitled to be treated according too their needs.....
In our little corner of the world, English is the main language, 2ndly Irish is taught in a few exclusively irish schools and even a 3rd dialect is recognised Ulster-scots both on official documents, signs etc......
Things a really changing..........being a little Englander...just won't wash A.....:)
