The third programme in an eight-part series on matters of interest and importance to everyone concerned with the education of their children. Barry Turner and Maureen O'Connor purvey news and opinion about educational issues, respond to points raised in listeners' letters, and explore some of the ways in which parents can help their children to get the best out of the educational system.
This week in particular, they look at the bewildering number of options offered by many secondary schools and discuss some of the issues involved in choice of subjects by the under-16s. Producer SALLY THOMPSON Correspondence to:
