What we're doing now is we're saying that individual schools can spend the money on their own priorities so that head teachers can decide what's truly important because the big shift in approach on education that we're taking - which is different from what happened before - is that we trust teachers and we trust heads.

This is a value-added college education if I have heard one described. And what is the most remarkable about Delaware State University graduates - is they just keeping giving back.

They were often the first students in their family to go to college and the very idea of higher education was still foreign to them. They had to make a conscious and often difficult decision to come to college.

Delaware State began as a school bent on service - teaching education social services and nursing.

By climbing a steeper road the value and appreciation Delaware State students took and continue to take from their education and their experiences is just as great if not greater than students attending ivy league schools.

Education is what remains when we have forgotten all that we have been taught.

Except among those whose education has been in the minimalist style it is understood that hasty moral judgments about the past are a form of injustice.

The first big break was winning a scholarship to go to Cambridge University. I was very lucky because my parents couldn't have afforded a university education for me. Without a scholarship I couldn't possibly have gone.

The parent knows instinctively that if they're working and setting an example for their child that means that child is more likely to be in school more likely to stay out of trouble and more likely to complete their education.
