How many successful unqualified surgeons are there? How many successful unqualified pilots are there? How many successful unqualified teachers are there? Oh wait, you don't get successful unqualified surgeons and pilots, but some of the best teachers are 'unqualified'.
I'm sure
some of the best pilots don't have the right qualifications to fly a 747. Would you open the gates to all unqualified pilots just so we can attract these few?
Yes, requiring basic minimum qualifications does exclude some exceptional people but it also keeps out a lot of terrible people too.
Again, if they're so bad, why were there more under Labour?
Unqualified teacher (a teacher who hasn't completed their training yet) != unqualified person teaching.
And what Labour introduced did work? Why were so many kids leaving school without the basic literacy and numeracy skills?

Does the new curriculum copy the likes of the Netherlands and Finland or move further away from them?
Finland's teachers are well-paid, trusted to do the job and require
higher levels of qualification than those in the UK.
Free schools which stemmed from academies which Labour first introduced - there seems to be a pattern here... 'bad things' which Labour were first to do, or did more, etc!
You trust Labour to be right based on their aforementioned past record?
I think most educators thought that Labour did a pretty terrible job too. The main problem being too much change.
He was moved because the unions/teachers/Facebook retards had spacked out so much he was going to be a political negative in the general election, imo. He did a difficult job which was always going to attract a lot of heat... unsurprisingly he's straight back into a big role now...
His 'big role' is career suicide. Gove has been chosen to do a hatchet job on the ECHR. It's only going to take a handful of rebels to bring down the UK's withdrawal from the ECHR - something that's going to look very embarrassing. None of the intellectual heavyweights in the party want to be associated with that stink.
Also, this is amazing:
