Languages can be helpful if taught practically and not just enough to pass the GCSE,

but I agree. A life skills class would be really helpful

I wouldn't drop languages but they should be taught so student can converse with some confidence, I agree with RE though and English literature unless you specifically want to study it.

..I agree with you about foreign languages Cherie, I think that's a real failing in Primary schools...


...hmmm, I'm not sure about this, the concept is good..to teach skills etc..but paying them different amounts for each skill though would seem to be not a great thing for 7yr olds.../that it's all about the money as well...
