To achieve this, they let the parents choose the school for their children instead of just send them to the local schools. This was supposed to make the school crave for better results and make them compete. If the schools wanted to keep on having students, they now had to show good results, because no parents will send their children to a bad school. That means that the best schools can pick their students, obviously they choose the best ones. Some schools, like the grammar schools, require a good result on the 11+.
It also can make it easier than in the past for a student who switches schools, because now schools broadly have to follow a similar curriculum. The national curriculum was introduced to enable assessment, which also helped to compile league tables. League tables (1988 education act) are another change that has helped the education system. League tables are used to compare the academic achievements of different institutions and parents can use them to decide which school they want their child(ren) to go to. Using league tables is a good thing as if you want your child to go to a good school, you can chose the one most suitable with good education and exam results.

For instance if there are more employed people in the neighborhood the need for crime should go down, because then people have the means to make a living, and this sets a good example for the children in the communities that see people work hard to have a livelihood. Social control theory is when the norm in one’s household is not the norm for the rest of the community. Social control teaches what the norm is by the right social interaction with the right influencing people. (Barbra D. Warner, 2010) (Justice Research and Statistics Association, 1998-2012) Labeling Theory In choosing the labeling theory, prison rehabilitation I thought most related to one another. The labeling theory is a type of stereotyping for example, once a cheat always a cheat.
You use the money to create jobs or create schools, learning programmes, so these kids can get skills so they can be productive citizens. If they are productive citizens and they have an income that will certainly keep them away from crime.’’ – Elliot thinks that if America builds more prisons, making youth programmes, create jobs and schools, will help getting them away from the streets. He believes that if you give them the opportunity to go to school and have a job they would be more active as a citizen in the society and therefore they will not commit any crimes. 4. What do some
In this paper the writer will address and discuss what roles leadership, knowledge and skills play into becoming an effective IT Manager. There is much discussion into what makes a good IT Manager.

Grades are being used for this because grades can be used to get a rough preview of the person in question. Grades show the applicant’s ability to listen accurately, communicate clearly, follow instructions, and to return a product, answer or skill on request. It is the student’s willingness and ability to apply themselves to the task at hand that demonstrates their future value to employers in the marketplace. Prospective bosses see good grades in school as an indication of the student’s ability to provide desired results, which makes them highly marketable and in demand. Without grades, how else would we assess and measure a student’s abilities in a practical way that can be used for this?
Once this reluctance is overcome our society will improve dramatically. It is a proven truth that the betterment and improvement of any social system depends upon the depth of the relationship which its individuals enjoy. Moreover, educating students about diverse cultures can help them understand their own culture in a better manner. Contrasting their own trends and ideas with others, is a very good way of understanding that what is better and why. The juvenile minds will not only learn about other cultures, but will also get closer to their own culture.
Implementing School Uniforms Implementing school uniforms will increase academic performance and reduce behavioral problems. While this is a temporary solution to the permanent problem of getting students to strive for achievement, the implementation of school uniform policies, especially at this pivotal point in time in our countries future, is one way we could help young people to realize their potential thru improving the over all quality of education in our country. While students and parents face many daily struggles that distract them from more important things, financial issues can be sited as one of the biggest struggles facing families and individuals these days. School uniforms provide a low cost alternative to expensive designer clothing. Students whose parents can’t afford expensive clothing can be spared the harsh words and jeers from their peers, allowing them to blend in instead of being singled out as poverty stricken or less fortunate then others, thus giving all the students the outward appearance of equals.
Technology is a strong importance in our everyday live and in society, but it brings a strong division between poor and wealthy, smart and illiterate, active and passive citizens. Technology in education is a great resource to have for students’ education because it helps expand their horizon in learning, keeps them modern and up to date in the world around them, and helps them develop social skills and build connections needed to stay active and involved in society. Technology in education definitely helps and benefits students’ education, but can also hurt them if not used properly. Research has shown that students tend to learn better online than face to face with a teacher, but even better when they have online access as well as face-to-face with a teacher. (Project RED, 2010) The real issue is that some schools/ district restrict students from using technology in school to support their education.
