The interests of current English Schools Foundation students will not be harmed should the ESF and the government come to a new arrangement for the 2013-14 school year.
I can't clearly understand the grammar of above sentence. Could you explain to me the relationship of 'will not be harmed', 'should' and 'come' in the above sentence. I think I can't throughly get the meaning of 'should'. Thank you very much.

假如你已經明白假設句和imparative(祈願的可能)便是用should的意思，即是假設地希望將來會如此(這先決條件)...will not be harmed便不會受傷了。
兩者雖然都是未發生的事，should那動詞是假如如此，然後will那動詞理應將會出現的現象。這是以中文文法次序理解，但你可見英文的文法次序是把將會出現先寫跟著才把假設的先決條件或假如寫出，用意是引導讀者先認同點出想得的結果...然後才把雖要的條件/假設說出使讀者明白所需要的回應或預算是甚麼。這便是修辭或演說運用的技巧，而不是基本班的if a then b那種記事式的寫法。

will not be harmed------Tense in Main clause----Imperative
should----come=should come-------Present tense in "if" clause
Therefore----The ESF interests will not be harmed------------main cl.
Therefore----if gov should come to a new arrangement------if clause
should----come=should come-------Present tense in "if" clause
Therefore----The ESF interests will not be harmed------------main cl.
Therefore----if gov should come to a new arrangement------if clause
