Well-another preposterous Children In Need day passes. Fat teachers pigging out on cakes for cheridee from Sgt Bunn (about the only military figure that schools WILL endorse). Kids forced to pay £1 for the right to wander around in pyjamas and onesies with BBC cameras present (Is that wise Captain Mainwaring, post Savile eh?). And not a jot of education going on behind the silent facades.
Your parents and carers really need to know what goes on, or is it merely free childcare?(well you`ve paid plenty taxes, so free it ain`t!). Schools have now been going for over 150 years by compulsion and they are dying on their padded arses. Yet, as long as they`re SOMEWHERE-then fair enuffski!
Charity beanos like today’s only formalise the fun and fiction factories that schools are nowadays. Light sabres waved around, Christian Gary on the kindle. As for local history, Wessex pride and culture, let alone national geography? Forget it. Recycle and use a condom, TES printouts and DfE/OFSTED scripts “delivered” like pizza boys do.
Witness the degree of childlike entitlement that today’s adults display. They lose Brexit and squauk over a US election where they had no “skin in the game” whatsover . They scoff at God, but wave their “End of the World” placards as any religious nutter would have done on the way to the football ground way back. Only its “man-made climate change” that seals our doom, not an angry God.
You`ve all been to school-and you end up unthinking flat pack, flat earthers who send your kids to school to worship at Obama shrine, a Dalai Lama scented candle. Well schooled all of you.
For Gods sake, think on why ALL States worldwide are so fast to stuff the nations kids into schools as soon as they can do so! Like revolutions that take the TV studios, schools are sitting ducks for manufacturing consent among the sheeple. Unlike TV studios , nobody wants or cares what goes on in them-as long as the school can be measured against the state corkscrew to show it`s not the worst (and certainly not the best).
Finally-to return to my point above-I note another poster cites the sex abuse stuff from the Scallywag era. The doyen of OFSTED inspection under New Labour (and Major’s moribund morons too) had his scrapes with underage sex, and we let him INSPECT our Mother’s Units? Come on people.
So-I notice that some of my posts pass muster with you, others seem not to. True education is not schooling, let alone pre-digesting what is rawly written so a green numpty or Quaker knock-kneed do-gooder can avoid those hard questions. Without abuse too please.
The job is to Finish Schools. Maybe one day you`ll all feel so good and brave that you`ll detoxify yourselves and will be able to face your kids and teach then something useful. Not why we need to do more for Gary Lineker’s bank balance or a Pudsey suit, How thick ARE we?
