Education
One Nation is committed to a fundamental level of education which encompasses at the very least, writing, reading, spoken skills & expression combination with essential mathematics to ensure this we will replace the UNESCO "PROGRESSIVE" system with a full "SYLLABUS" system, with emphasis on responsibility, competition & discipline.
We will reinstate school inspectors & ensure morality, aptitude tests will be conducted to ensure students are directed towards an education in line with their capabilities.
Statistics show that two thirds of students choose trades etc. & the other third go into professional pursuits. For students going into trades it is essential that they begin apprenticeships at 16 years of age, as this is proven to be the best age to mould them into the discipline of learning. To keep them at school beyond this age for what seems to be political purposes is a waste. Upon completing college & their apprenticeship they can then pursue any further education. This means that the high school certificate level would be upon completion of the third year. For students intending to go on to professional or academic pursuits they would need to complete the final two years of high school.
