I think i've learnt more from being on the internet in a few years than i did in most of my schooling.

I feel that teachers, especially now days are very far fetched, They think they are god and will not change their attiude.

In 2005 in the UK they found that 15,000 teachers were below standards, and should never of been employed, unless retrained. 2009, How many lost their jobs since 2005 ???
10 !!

Teaching nowdays has definately got worst, i hear my kids explaining the problems with their teachers, sometimes it makes me mad

Shelley, Sorry to hear about your brother, but i'm with you 100%, Don't let them get away with it, Makes you mad that teachers that are supposed to set standards can resort to cruelty like this. Report them Shelley, Not to the school, But to your MP and Local Education Authority.

Cruelty like this has to stop NOW

Myself i believe its down to the person unwilling to learn because u cant tell me that thoughout all of the schools they would of gone to,all of them ignored this person and never taught them anything.

Hi Lasto

When i went to school, there were about 20 decent hard working kids in a class and at least 1 or 2 of what we used to call the class "Thicko's" Ones that just didn't want to learn, always hold people back and forever getting into trouble, That was what it was like in the late 70's early 80's.

Now

Well now we have the opposite, we have a class of 20 insubordinate kids who only want to leave school and hang about on street corners, whilst theres only a couple that really want to learn, but instead just gets bullied by the feral kids.

What we need to see is some disipline being bought back to schools, Perhaps open up some Military Style Academies here in the UK complete with the punishment that normally goes with it.

The kids that leave school without being able to read and write shows a complete failiure in the education authority's Duty of care towards the pupils. But before we sort out the kids, we need to sort out the useless teachers that should not be teaching in the first place.

let sort it out for our kids sake :up:
