Why does school demoralise and disillusion so many pupils, undermining and eroding their self-belief, natural playfulness and individuality? Were you aware that this may be the result of deliberate global policy with schooling a tool of oppression for the many and a breeding ground of power for the elite few? Why are school teachers quitting the profession in such alarming numbers, many not even completing their professional training? Did you know that school is not even compulsory, at least not in the UK? Do you know about the alternatives? Is it not time to rediscover the power of choice for your children's sake?This book reveals with dramatic testimonies the toxic effects of the modern schooling system on both pupils and teachers alike and explores the more child-friendly options that could save us all from the insanity of a system that is broken and rotten to its core.

A "glittering" school and university career led the author to qualify as a lawyer. It also left him shattered and empty inside and with a diagnosis aged 23 of a potentially lifelong disease. He quit the legal profession still only 27 and set about re-defining his life. After several years teaching English in Spain he returned to the UK to embark upon teaching the card game bridge. Funding was awarded to him to take a simplified version of bridge to schools all over England. His experiences in schools revealed the full extent of the dysfunction in the system and how damaging it can be for most children. Decades later he is now happy and healthy, working creatively as a writer, researcher and teacher, his own life finally back on track and determined to help others rediscover their own power to make positive, more informed choices for themselves and their family.
