National Standards Petition

 Why are educational experts, principals, teachers, and many parents so worried about National Standards?
Because we care about children's learning, we respectfully request that National Standards be trialled in our schools before being introduced nationally.
Some of the concerns raised are:
-They are untried and untested
-Will label children as young as 5 as failures
-Could result in misleading and damaging school league tables
-Are not the solution to under-achievement
Come to the Saint Paul's School office to show your support and sign the National Standards Petition. Help your children get a better education.
