I don't know whether it would make you feel any better nossy Send a noteboard - 27/10/2009 01:59:15 PM
But I think you should write a letter to the decider people, and possibly the local paper. Of course they have the final say, but deciding that Shakespeare (even cleaned and edited) is suddenly anathema for young people is going overboard (imo). I'd want to see what the community had to say about it- especially the community of parents* who believe they are sending their children to a good school.



*I have to admit that part of me is worried they'd back the decision.
