US: No more summer vacation?
Schools should cut the long summer holiday to create a better-educated workforce, says the mayor of one of the biggest cities in the United States. "If you're going to compete with India and China, they're going to school six days a week and they don't take the summer off," said the mayor. "Still having two months off is ridiculous in this country."
