Grammar Schools full of Middle Class Kids?

This is hardly a surprise given that

  • there are now so few Grammar Schools
  • middle class parents try to get the best education for their kids.
There are a number of issues to be dealt with with or acknowledged:
  • we don't have enough money - OTOH, we seem to be spending twice the PISA average so perhaps we do!
  • school children are not all of the same ability
  • having clever, motivated parents (not just pushy) parents helps
So, do we need more or less Grammar Schools?
