Barnets Ministry of Truth strikes again.

If you look at the Barnet Council website you'll see this lovely press release from Fiona Bulmer boasting about how marvelleous Barnet are and how good the SAT results are :-

Way hay, as a parent in Barnet, that's great news isn't it - crack open the champagne !!!!!

Hold on a sec, there's this story in the Times detailing how the SAT results have actually got worse :-

There's even a quote from our FiFi making excuses for it.

Well if you are a parent in Barnet, one thing is clear. Take everything the Council tells you with a pinch of salt. Whether you believe me or not, the evidence is there for you to see.

Shameful really.
