Docents Back on at National Gallery -- Schoolchildren NOT relegated to what their teachers know about art

Update on earlier entry: I blogged not terribly long ago about the National Gallery's decision to suspend docent-led tours for school children for 18 months while they thought about what to do instead. I thought that was stoooopid.

Good news - the museum reconsidered and won't cancel the program. Somehow they'll soldier on and run tours and consider other options at the same time!! Your tax dollars very, very hard at work. Pffffft.
