EDUCATION: Ebrard makes a populist move
Marcelo Ebrard, the mayor of Mexico City and a likely presidential
candidate for the left-wing Partido de la Revolución Democrática in 2012 made
his first major policy move at the end of August. His initiative is to offer
cash prizes of US$300 to primary school children (aged between four and 12) who
produce outstanding results. The children have to score average marks of nine
out 10 throughout the year to qualify for the prize.
