SATs

Not a good morning.  It's the last day of SATs and the Bunny had to be half dragged to school crying that she didn't want to go.  Silly girl never told us about it or how worried she was about the whole thing. 

Personally I think it's stupid to put them through this at such a young age but thats what you get when government thinks it can tell experts how to do their job.

Lots of attention and cuddles for the weekend I think.

I caught the first half (or so) of Woman's Hour on Radio 4 this morning. It was dissecting two bits of government overlord-ing; SATs and some new child-minder legislation. The politicians go on about how good the ideas are and that they're not supposed to be a burden, but to help [insert group you want to please here]. The poor bods at the sharp end, however, tell a different story...
