Story: Gaming gets trialled in the classroom

On a day when only 5% of under 18s know of VJ and what it represents, whatever next. If schools can't teach history, they will now have to drop Geography. Physical Education ( PE ) was more commonly known as " Games " and children kept fit from PE. If these idiots want to know the benefits ( or disadvantages ) of playing ( violent ) games they just had to ask most teenagers what they do after school and the effects of the activity. Once again, crazy, uneducated, fools have handed lottery money over and for a cause that can only benefit the profits of the Games manufacturers as schools will now be giving them free promotion in the time allocated for education. Do we really need a future of a society of game playing layabouts, rather than having an educated society to attempt to get the UK back on the world market of skills and brains???? The UK has fell out of world competition, as leaders of Industry and commerce, over the past 30 years and is now poorly ranked. In 10 years time, the Japanese will come here to play games as that is all we'll have to offer.
