The Guardian had a very interesting series on literacy in the UK. There was a paragraph about a teacher,who asked each kid to bring one book from home. One girl brought an Argos catalog.When explained by the teacher that it's not a book,the girl told the teacher that this was the only one she could find at home. These kids have no chances if the parents are like this and most likely is the biggest hurdle as opposed to the lack ofWifi or any other issue.
