When the Sun declared: 'SATs yer lot' back in October, it sacrificed accuracy for a catchy headline. Nothing wrong with that, of course we writers often need to emphasise style over substance--but although the SATs may have taken a beating, they refused to lie down. Neither did Ken Boston--nor even, dear reader, our old friend Chris Woodhead. As counterbalance, poetry also grabbed a good deal of media attention this spring. Boston accuses Balls of misleading MPs on SATs
