This is particularly interesting given the direction and impact that Gove has had.

Ken Robinson is fantastic - if you haven't seen it already, make time to watch his TED talk.

Ken's ideas are great, but sadly seem to have precious little impact on the decision makers in UK education.

I try to slip some of his ideas into my teaching 'under the radar' but it's not easy in the current climate. This is a sad thing.
