Here is a play written to be read, and it is inside a thought-provoking book that challenges the reader to consider these questions: -What stands between us and the destruction of things we treasure? -Who threatens it? -When is diversity more important than equality? -Which is the wiser mantra in education-Equality or Equity? -How far does decrlaring a "Right" provide the protection of "a Right?" -How do we reconcile an increasingly controlling society with a participating one? -How do we get a more efficient, less wasteful system of Government? -How do we get better directed policies from all political parties? -How does a multicultural society live at peace with itself? -In this generation properly mindful of the legacy it is bequeathing to the grandchildren of its grandchildren?
A play about the closing of a school for special educational needs provides some provocative answers. In a world where many children are denied an education that is right for them. We are equal only sometimes, unequal most times, and always different.
In short, this is a polemic right for our times, and important for all those who care about the future of the rising generation in our schools.
