Mr Gove responds to Ruth Saxton, Chair of NATD

June 6, 2013 Leave a Comment

During the National Curriculum Consultation period, Ruth Saxton, Chair of NATD wrote to her local MP, Hilary Benn to solicit his support in getting our voice heard by Mr Gove. Mr Gove has responded to Hilary Benn who has forwarded the response to Ruth. Please click here to see the letter in full.

The response is astonishingly predictable, certainly provocative and at the very best displays an utterly blinkered approach to all that Drama in Education stands for. Some might say it is myopic, others that it signals a conscious attempt to destroy the decades of work of this Association and all those who stand alongside us.

This is required reading for all who care about the education of young people.
