The Goverment cuts EMA is that fair?

DJK, what happens if kids fail because the teacher is crap? Should they still lose their EMA?

If the teacher is cr@p then the fail rate will reflect that and it can be looked at. It's not hard to see which teachers are good or bad....the difficutly comes in firing the bad ones, as anyone in the teaching profession will tell you.

I am also proposing that you can fail one assessment before losing EMA. Only if you fail the second term should it become an issue which I think would give plenty of opportunity to establish if the teaching standard is at fault.
