It is commonplace for teachers and parents to complain that politicians interfere too much in education, constantly making announcements and launching initiatives but often having no real effect.
It is rare, though, for a politician to admit the same. Yet this is the position that one very experienced former MP and government minister has reached.
Estelle Morris, who was Schools Minister and then Education Secretary from 1997 to 2002, is an unusually candid politician who has thought hard about the relationship between politicians and education reform.
She has just delivered those thoughts in a lecture to the National Education Trust, an independent education foundation. It could be the start of a more mature debate on education reform.
Although some headlines highlighted her criticism of the government for 'thrashing around' on school reform, the underlying theme was more fundamental than these mildly critical comments of current policy by a former minister.
