520			_aLa 4e de couv. indique : "Do you wilfully sacrifice bright children for political principles if you send them to a comprehensive school? This is one of the most emotive topics in the discussion about comprehensive education, and, as today's clever children will be key members of tomorrow's society, the issue is important to more than just the families involved.
