SCHOOLS need to instill a more patriotic attitude in pupils because this will help in creating a socially and economically active population with a new national identity.
Politicians and teachers need to remind themselves of that, not the kids.

Losiong the plot a bit here Trev, my man. Patriotic illiterates aren't going to help anyone get anywhere. How does your "plan" ensure that education is actually going to happen in our poor country wracked by incompetent corrupt management? Your focus is completely wrong, Sir, as it has been for quite some time now. Report Abuse
