Edge, an independent education foundation, is calling on students to start an education revolution. The charity wants you to have your voice heard by uploading a video on what you feel needs to change in schools, along with subjects you would most like to study. The winning videos will then be screened on MTV.
So, how does it work?
If you are 16 or over than simply film your views on education and upload it to a video site such as YouTube with the title beginning EdgesRevolution, followed by your name. Secondly all videos must be tagged with EdgesRevolution, otherwise you might not be entered.
What should you discuss in your video?
1.If you couldve chosen a subject that would have helped you fulfil your talent it can be anything, not just a normal school subject - what would that subject have been and why? E.g.; Film/photography/criminology
2.If you could send a message to politicians asking them to change the education system in any way, what would it be?
3.Young people seeing this are facing some big, life-changing decisions, Edges mission is to encourage them to realise there are many paths to success in life. What does many paths to success mean to you, personally?
4.Do you have a message for other young people about many paths to success?

It is not the responabilaty of the under 25's
to pay for there own education it is the duty of the over 50's to provide the best posible education to all children.
If you use money to jusify the present system then money need's to be removed from society all together.
Knowledge and education are what will change things for the better so they should be free.

And that is best designed by parents, teachers and communities the schools serve and not by industrial ideologues with core psychological issues about control.

The crucial outcome of Education ought to be a healthy self-esteem, one that easily resists peer pressure, that drives a healthy curiosity, the basis for life long learning.
