IMPORTING SUPERIOR CULTURES:
Ethnic minority children are top of the class (LAURA CLARK, 9th February 2007, Daily Mail)
Ethnic minority children are making better progress at school than white pupils in almost every part of the country, research revealed yesterday.Chinese, Pakistani, Indian, Bangladeshi and black African pupils are improving more quickly between the ages of 11 and 16.
Researchers believe the trend - apparent in virtually every local authority area in England - can be explained by contrasting attitudes to education between ethnic minority and white communities.
It's the laziness of the natives that makes for such good opportunities for immigrants. Posted by Orrin Judd at February 10, 2007 8:49 AM
