Untangling the Christmas Decorations

I often compare the Primary Education System to the decorations you find in the attic. Every time you try to untangle a knot, a new knot appears and after a while, you just chuck them over the tree and hope nobody notices the mess. The problem is that I've never managed to make that analogy in December. Until today. Join me as I untangle 3 news stories that hit the headlines and which knot is responsible for all of them.
