Why you need to attack teachers for fighting their own corner doesn't make sense. They've got a good, strong, organised union that looks out for their interests - how does that impact your situation? Divide and rule seen to be working here. Blame another group that are a bit better off than you rather than the folk at the top who are running the show.

I am an independence supporter but I would put a fair bit of the blame on the Scottish government for the decline in our education standards. They seem to be looking to the Scandinavian countries for ideas as to how to improve our education system but a lot of the ideas don't work because we have many more social problems than they do.

And having a go at teachers because they don't do a physical job and calling them snowflakes is something worthy of the Daily Mail.
Its worth remembering what started this debate in the first place and its the sense of entitlement of the teaching unions that their members should be allowed to skip the Q because they are special.
My only problem with that is it could derail the vaccine rollout in Scotland and lead to more deaths in higher age groups because 25 year old teachers with no underlying health conditions were prioritised for vaccine's they do not require just now.
That's WTF i am talking about.
