More Equality Problems

Giving consumers choice in public services - and particularly in schools - is causing acute risks to racial equality.
Yep, I agree. As I've mentioned before, people love to segragate themselves. For some reason the government still isn't getting the idea - reading the article it goes on to say that they are bringing pupils from predominantly black schools to predominantly white schools. Yeh, because that doesn't just scream 'you are different!' at the kids...
Why oh why can't they just start ignoring it. Schools are for children, and unlike anyone over 11 these kids don't (or shouldn't) yet have any racial predjudice or views. Once above that age it sets in and never leaves. Everyone reading this knows what I mean. Whether or not you mean to, you see people with different skin colour as different to you - maybe you even see them as hostile to you. That kind of problem can only be corrected by fixing the way we bring up children. And the government needs to listen.
