LabelParents given league tables comparing exam results of secondary schools? Q234
Question text Some say certain kinds of information should be made available to people, to help them make informed choices about public services such as schools and hospitals. Others think this information is irrelevant or cannot be trusted. First of all, thinking about parents who are deciding which secondary school to send their children to, how useful do you think it would be for them to be given league tables that compare the exam results of different secondary schools in their area?
