Benitez sacked...

[ramAnag]

I’m at a loss to understand how we’ve gone from Benitez/Rooney to teachers, however if we must...to GP...yes you do, although it seems much easier to qualify as a teacher these days than used to be the case...in fact we seem to be slipping back to post war days.

To Ramshank...why single teachers out? I’m not certain how or why you think teachers are happy to ‘impart their beliefs on our kids’ and why you believe ‘real world experience’ - however you’re going to define that - is more pertinent to teaching than a host of other professions i.e. social work, policing, nursing, being a GP etc. You do seem to have an odd obsession with discrimination and what constitutes ‘discriminatory’ though.

rA, perhaps you need to revive your teaching skills and give Ramshank some WOKE lessons

Hmmm...that’s exactly what I wouldn’t do...not now...not ever!
But it’s very difficult to teach certain texts - from Macbeth to Oliver Twist - without tacitly ‘supporting’ certain viewpoints and it’s very difficult to support/defend a kid who is being bullied/victimised by others without espousing the opinion that bullying is wrong...largely because I can’t think of an example of when it isn’t.
