"The world is a dangerous place to live; not because of the people who are evil, but because of the people who don't do anything about it."
Albert Einstein

The challenge we all face is about action or is it inaction. We spend too much time in working parties, committees, focus groups, project boards and meetings talking about the things that are wrong and what we need to do to put them right. We create strategies, plans, structures and resources. We inspect, monitor, measure, check and audit.

My challenge is why don't we simply put all this activity into action and do something about underachievement by rolling up our sleeves, targetting vulnerable and hard to reach groups using the things that work like Every Child a Reader. Makes sense to me.
