In Nanny's world, we are all equal; apart from those who are not.She is now seeking to ensure that those whom she regards as being "different" are treated differently. Rather odd that, given her anti discrimination "beliefs", wouldn't you say?
Nanny's Qualifications and Curriculum Authority (QCA) recently confirmed that it is discussing a new exam, that will take account of the different fluency levels among ethnic minorities.
In some parts of Britain, as many as 75% of pupils have a mother tongue that is not English. Therefore Nanny seeks to "redress" the "imbalance" in the system that would clearly "favour" native English speakers, by having an exam for non native speakers.
That, to my humble view, is discrimination is it not?
How does that help them integrate?
All Nanny will end up doing is to create a second class examination system, that marks down those that take it as being second class.
An impressive career begins with strong training. If you've ever wanted to work
for a surety company start your training search here. And imagine what the future can hold.
But if everyone integrates then all those outreach officers, equal opportunities people, community relations organisations and other miscellaneous wasters would be out of a job!

ReplyDeleteWhy not have each exam in a different foreign language and rotate them round each year. It would take away any unfair advantage of the native speakers and encourage the Brits to learn some foreign languages too. That would work.
