Northern ireland education was not divided into catholic and protestant schools. The UK government provided state schools for all but the catholic church in ireland insisted catholics went to independent catholic schools. It was not a social "experiment" but it is a good example of how religion poisons everything.

AC Grayling is, for me, one of the clearest and best speakers that I know. His ability to convey what he wants to say with a humour and passion that underlies the seriousness of his subject is what makes him such a good speaker.
He puts my fears about the Academies Bill into words. I am appalled that the Bill went through with little in the way of change and that the BHA's points were summarily dismissed. It does not augur well for the future of education in this country.

This is great, I want more children to do this, be honest and use critical thinking from an early age.

apart from the audio problem which i managed to fix somehow its a great talk :)
definitively worth watching. education is important, because humans are born blind, deaf, and stupid. the other two things go away automatically with time, but the stupidity can stay for a lifetime unless you do something about it.
