'RICH CHILDREN ARE ALREADY BUSSED TO TOP SCHOOLS — BUT IN PEOPLE CARRIERS'.

The article focuses on Simon Burgess, professor of economics at Bristol University and director of the Centre for Market and Public Organisation. He presented the findings of research on the economics of parental choice to the Prime Minister's Strategy unit the day before the British government published its White Paper on education. He reacted to the White paper saying that he wants to see more emphasis being placed on support for poorer families to make choices.
