What a crock of SH1T! It's fck all to do with being young. It's all to do with home environment. If your parents provide a loving home and promote a natural love of exploring and knowing the world around you FROM A YOUNG AGE, and/or a focus and discipline towards learning from an early age, then guess what - you want to learn when you get to school. Instead we have kids stuck in front of TV screens or iPADs to keep them occupied watching Peppa fcking Pig from the age of 2 for hours on end until they're hooked on that ****, never having the seed of exploration sown or the knowledge of the world around them. If you want to know what the problem is, I'll tell you. Go to developing countries and look at the kids there attending schools. If people in this country had to pay for schools from their bank account, instead from their taxes - if they had to buy the writing books, the text books, the reading books, the pens, the stationery, the school fees every term, then they wouldn't have this sense of entitlement, they'd appreciate and value schools, teachers and learning a lot more and so would their kids. And you'd have greater discipline at home. And this is coming from a socialist ffs. Because that's what you find in countries where they do have to pay for it all. You should be grateful you live in a country where you get it at a fraction of the price from taxes which are paid by all of us to raise you and your children. @haslam expel this dickhead.
So what Trebs is saying we should make all the poor families pay for schooling, so they pay better attention to Mr Trebs in class. I like this idea, why haven't the Tories thought of it ffs. Sunak sort it bro.
Not about rich or poor - seen good and bad regardless. Rich ppl can pay for it too. Rishi's family did
You know schools here actually did this a couple of years ago It was called "internal exclusion". The schools that tried it got absolute fcking pelters... by guess who? The parents. Then DfE got involved and I think all the schools that did it, stopped it.
The best teachers build relationships with their kids. I don't mind saying there isn't a so-called 'wrongun' I haven't got the best out of. There's more personal reward in that than there is in getting an A student. The worst teachers are the ones who think they're sergeant major. No connection with the kids. I've come across a few and those that don't change, I want them out. You can be the best English and maths teacher in the world, but if you're **** at managing behaviour then you're just a **** teacher, full-stop.
The problem with education is the brb went and voted tory... without him we'd have no brexit, a fully funded health service, Johnson would have been crucified on the centre spot of wembley, we'd all get a proper pay rise, there'd be no global warning, **** would be in the sewers instead of the rivers, Nadine Dorris would be in an institution and most importantly of all ****ING ARSENAL WOULDN'T BE TOP OF THE MOTHER ****ING LEAGUE. Brb...
Would have definitely helped me. I couldn't concentrate because I was too busy showing off and trying to impress my mates, who were also doing the same. Kids innit. I come from a loving home, too.
If it wasn't for Labour my daughter wouldn't be paying thousands of pounds every year to be educated. We wouldn't have invaded the middle east slaughtering innocent people. We wouldn't have had the terrorist attacks that we've had on our soil. I like this game, could go on forever
That's fine mate, I left school at 16, didn't sit around on my arse and worked for what I have today. Most kids these days will not work full time until they are in their late teens or mid twenties. That's fine but don't come crying when their degree is worthless or they suddenly realise they have a mountain of debt. Yes, the government are to blame for that, I fully agree with you, but as Saff pointed out to me, it was Blair that brought in these policies, that gave kids high hopes but mostly ended in tears, when the value of their degrees diminished with every enrolement. Yes there were winners, kids that did well for themselves, my kids fall into that category - so people can preach to me all they like, but my mortgage is paid up, and my kids have well paid jobs, so I must have done something right, aside from voting Tory.
**** me brb...that is some serious answer to the bollocks I wrote...if I was Hiag I'd have a net meme posted
****ing train driving ****ers, I've got to drive into Birmingham tomorrow now, ****ing hole of a city to drive around.
Thing is both you and Trebs often make out you know all the answers, where I look at life differently, the proof is in the pudding. It's shameful when you see the kids being failed, all because someone don't have the balls to tell them to get off their fooking arse. Kids use to do paper rounds before school, kids use to do Saturday jobs at weekends, kids use to get jobs at 16, now those numbers have halved if not only a quarter now of what they use to be. Why, because mummy and daddy buy all the luxuries so they don't have to earn it. Maybe that's a bit too harsh, but reality sometimes needs to be looked at.
I hate to break the news to people, but we don't actually teach degrees in schools We can scrap schools of course. Those who want their kids to learn can pay for it, the rest can do what they want. Everyone's happy, especially the teachers
In fairness me and Trebs know the answers cos we wrote the questions ... only a ****ing idiot would answer someone else's questions ffs
They still striking mate, don't hear much on the news about it now, guess a few more wage packets will be short end of the month. Never mind, they've got the food banks to help them out.
