Abstract

The article looks at education in Great Britain as of 2014, focusing on private schools and inequality of educational opportunity. The author expresses the view that neither the Conservative Party nor the Labour Party has been willing to address the country's educational inequality and suggests a cross-party commission on the issue. He offers proposals including requiring private schools as well as top-performing public schools to reserve some places for low-income children.
