Labour plans compulsory community service for youngsters | Education | guardian.co.uk
Compulsory Voluntary work? This will not be voluntary it will be work done on the cheap, has someone realised just how impossible it will be to force everyone to stay in education until they are 18 and decided to find them something else to do. Now I am all for encouraging teenagers to volunteer to do community work,but the important word there is volunteer. Who will supervise these 'volunteers' and what will be the penalty for not hitting the 50 hour mark? This will not increase a sense of community in our young it will probably just bring about resentment at being forced to do this service.
