Teenagers as young as 16 are to be drafted into primary schools to plug gaps left by teacher shortag

 

1. "And schools should not be a dumping ground for youngsters that can’t get a job elsewhere...”

   Oh I see, it should only be a dumping ground for *oldsters* that can’t get a job elsewhere, huh? Such as a lot of the teachers who have enough union seniority that they effectively CANNOT be fired?

   Pssst.... yer ulterior motive is showin, dude.

2. I don’t blame anyone for not wanting to teach. My brother did it for a few years but packed it in when he realised it was full of marxists and arse lickers. The kids by and large are total bastards nowadays and the teachers can’t do anything about it. Ten years of right on, politically correct management has wrecked the majority of schools in England.

3. Ah, pardon me for asking the obvious here, OK?  Does this mean that muzzie students will be qualified under this hair brained scheme to teach in the schools?  Hasn’t anyone put together that this will open the doors wide for teaching their “religion”?  Then again, since dhimmitude seems to be the unwritten law of the land maybe this is acceptable to the government at any and all levels.

   As far as the kids teaching kids thing goes, there goes the standards for edumacashun in England. /sound flush.wav I can foresee bribes being given and accepted for the teen “apprentices” to either look the other way or give passes where passes aren’t due - all for the sake of social acceptance.

   I was a teacher in a church school for a few years in an unpaid position.  I found the problem wasn’t necessarily with the students as much as with the teaching hierarchy who demanded I jump through their hoops at any given time.  Sorry, no job is worth having your personal life infringed on.
