The education system is supposed to be the springboard from which the lives and careers of our kids are launched, so it's quite important that we should understand what goes on there.

Of course, if you think that the State is perfectly competent to educate your kids then you send them to a state school and you can sit back and put your feet up, or you can send your kids to a private school and pay for the privilege.

As a last resort you can home-school them yourself (unless you fall foul of the new provisions in the Schools Bill).

Either way you probably get to attend a parents' evening where the teachers will tell you what they want you to hear, but what further access do you need and what questions are you entitled to expect an answer to when you believe you may have cause for worry?

GBNews explores some of the issues.
