School = Learning? Possibly not!

No one fails to learn yet many fail at school.

That very simple sentence from Deven Black in his post ‘I’m tired of Talking about Education’ is not only very powerful but one that should be shared with teachers, parents and people who make decisions about education.
Do you feel that the emphasis on school rather than learning is too great? If you are a teacher how do you break the barriers that the system may put up to stop you helping children learn?
