UK Online Petition

E-petition UK. (2010). Number 10.gov.uk: The official site of the Prime Minister’s Office, at URL: http://webarchive.nationalarchives.gov.uk/+/http://www.number10.gov.uk/Page22227

Reply Brown Government:“School libraries are a key resource for pupils and teachers. They support the National Curriculum by providing books and ICT equipment, and at their best they are a valuable asset to teachers and a source of enjoyment and learning for children and young people. However, the provision of a school library is not a statutory requirement, and there are no current plans to alter this and change the legislation.It is the Government’s policy to put as much money as possible directly into schools’ budgets, allowing schools to target resources appropriately and to make their own choices about their school library provision and book resourcing.”Source: http://www.number10.gov.uk/Page22227

ALIES >> Alice

Alice in Wonderland:"Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?“

"That depends a good deal on where you want to get to," said the Cat.

"I don’t much care where--" said Alice."Then it doesn’t matter which way you go,"

said the Cat."--so long as I get SOMEWHERE," Alice added

as an explanation."Oh, you’re sure to do that," said the Cat,

"if you only walk long enough."(Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, Chapter 6)http://www.alice-in-wonderland.net/books/alice-in-wonderland-quotes.html
