Of course not but during term time they are constantly working outside their contracted hours, I think it's a pity that people have become so against teachers and it's the way the government always knock them that has caused this.

I havent paid much attention to what the govt have said about teachers, I know they have an agenda against them

Im just jealous of the hols really thats my only complaint

They do a job I couldnt do though (not much patience)

Have you seen the Educating Yorkshire show on ch 4? Thats pretty good

Oh btw, Shield is on tom night

You started it <laugh>

PS...I don't complain about teacher's, never have done. However, they shouldn't moan about holidays. They chose the profession and no one forces them to work outside of contractual hours. And before you question my view, I work for a charity and do plenty of work outside my contractual hours too including giving up my Sunday afternoons. They get paid plenty (not many teachers about with a **** car or house is there?) for what they do and get more holidays (its a thirty-nine week year (I only get twenty-four days a year), plus they're paid for another four or five weeks to cover holidays they can't take depending on contract agreements).

Now, if they were to complain about having to pay ridiculous prices for holidays because they are restricted to the peak times that are the most costly, then they would have my 100% backing. This is also the reason I am incredibly pissed off that the government have just introduced the fining system for kids missing school. Simply put, I can't afford to go on holiday (not even talking about abroad or hotels etc) during the school holidays because the prices shoot up so much. Now I'll have to pay £120 per child if they miss school I can't afford to go in school term either. I'm not even bothered about the fine because kids shouldn't miss school, what pisses me off is the government have introduced this fine without (yet again) considering who suffers! It's not going to stop the people that can afford it because its still cheaper to take the kid out of school than it is to go away at peak time!


I'm going to stop there because you've got me going...<laugh>


PS...I pay no attention to the media so any comments from either party does not influence me in the slightest. I know a few teachers and I'm a parent experiencing the being shat on <ok>

Nah, seriously though, I'm very good with numbers and, although RHC and Enricky would have you believe otherwise (my fault as I never check anything on here) literacy etc. However, I was a slow starter and had to go to speech therapy between four and seven years of age because I couldn't pronunciate words properly. RHC has taken the piss out of me before because I still can't pronounce the difference between 'th' and 'f' (eg free and three). Just glad he's been able to grasp things early on. Not sure the youngest will be the same though <laugh>

Im ****e with no's to be honest

Good he seems to be grasping stuff early on <ok>

Maybe you just had bad teachers <whistle>

Was you?

Yeah that was a problem age for me to because of something that happened to me

But you get through these things, I think you learn to live with stuff as opposed to get over stuff

My brother is almost four years older than me and was the perfect child (at that age). He slept as soon as he was put down and pretty much did as he was told all the time. Then I came along. I never slept, I preferred to scream and be aggressive. My late nan told me my eyes used to scare her <laugh> With my brother, my parents never had a playpen or anything like that, they did for me. They even stuck my in it on the garden and left me <laugh>

When I got to school, I was called into the head teachers office (who happened to me a friend of my grandma (not same one)) no less than half a dozen times in two years. I was at the verge of exclusion but for it being a friend of the family. Most of the time it was for fighting, I kicked, scratched, bit and punched anyone that got in my way. I can remember biting someone because they got to the sink before me <laugh>

Ironically, when we (me and my brother) got older we switched roles. He got into trouble with the police etc and I didn't, not that I became a goody-goody, I just learnt to avoid his mistakes.
