Flag - St Piran Language - Cornish Nationality - Cornish In the census of 2011, 84,000 people declaree themselves “Cornish”, but only 557 people claim that the Celtic dialect is their main language, although there are now dual-language street signs throughout the county. I don't think you can call yourself Cornish, if you can't speak Cornish. There should be a test.) Oh look!  There is!

In Finland children do not have to undergo any formal tests and teachers are allowed to teach whatever and however they wish as long as they meet very general learning objectives set by Finland’s National Board of Education. (The only formal, national test is the university matriculation exam: a set of four open-ended exams that are based on problem-solving skills rather than subject mastery. Although most students who go on to university take this exam, it is not required for graduation from upper secondary school or even for university admissions Imagine that!  No fear, just learning.)

According to results from Professor Roger Steare's “Moral DNA test,” women are more moral than men. ( Professor Steare developed the test four years ago to measure changes in people’s value systems and 60,000 volunteers across 200 countries have already taken the quiz. There are six personality types: philosopher; judge; angel; teacher; enforcer; or guardian. The results to date show that females are more likely to make decisions based on how they impact on others.  You can take the test yourself  at www.moraldna.org . ) Source
