Free From the Eleven Plus

The School Fete was today!

An indoor fete has cakes, tombola, games and prizes, guess the weight as well as many donated items.

There are proud parents and grandparents. There are smiling and relaxed teachers. There are hundreds of happy and excited children of all ages.

I did not hear any discussions on school work. No one was talking about the Eleven Plus.

It must have bliss for a child to have been at school without any mention of examinations and levels.

A happy and pleasant afternoon.

Well done school!
