The English-Speaking Peoples

Stupid jerks.

England's young people near bottom of global league table for basic skills

OECD finds 16- to 24-year-olds have literacy and numeracy levels no better than those of their grandparents' generation

U.S. adults lag most countries in literacy, math and computer skills

Policymakers and politicians who wring their hands about the mediocre performance of U.S. students on international math and reading tests have another worry: The nation’s grown-ups aren’t doing much better.

Hooray for Canada! Marginally better than average is all we ask.
