    Re:point 1.

    At my local cinema many films are ruined by “chavvy scummy brats(who should have been drowned at birth)”. If a multi million pound blockbuster which they have paid for(maybe not) cannot keep them occupied and entertained how can a teacher be expected to.

    In our school, mobile phones are confiscated by teachers (at the administration’s request) and students’ PARENTS have to comeand reclaim them from the headmistress!

    All this trouble is down to teachers. I went to school in the 50s and then the new teachers wanted to be chums and didn’t believe in competition.
    by the time my children went to school the teachers were actively telling the children to ignore their parents. Plus 80% pass rates were normal.
    Gradually education was replaced by indoctrination
    So serves you all right.

    I’ve just discovered your website, and I totally enjoy it!I teach in the USA, in California, and trust me - things are going down hill in education here, too - you’re not alone!
    I particularly agree with “The Top 5 Lies about Behaviour.”!
    I’ve tried to find your re-load of ‘Blame the Teacher - 1947 Style” but it isn’t appearing…could you please tell me where I might find it?

    Thanks.

    I have emailed you an alternative link to that clip.

    There must be something up in education in California, there’s always far more hits on this site from there than the rest of the US.
