if you work you really dont want to read this

Simple - fire all the retards who can't stick with the already fantastically short working year. The ones that can't work for four weeks of a term without having a week + off thus needing supply teacher cover at a ridiculous cost.

It's been rife at my wife's school, but alas, there is nothing that can be done due to contractual/union agreements.

Perhaps although I'm not certain how it will be implemented or indeed how well it will work in practice as along with losing some dross you will probably also lose some quality teachers.

I cannot understand this mentallity at all. Labour has bloated the public sector with non jobs and employing quite a few people that arent particually good at what there supposed to be doing.

Have education standards risen after labour throwing money at it? From everything i have read the answer is no, standards have slipt. Money isnt always the answer.

Logically however cutting funding does not necessarily equal improvements either.

You use the concept of "space-time" in everyday life? I doubt that.

One of the major problems of the modern science curriculum is the removal of essential details from the basic material, to make room for words like "quark", "plasma", "spacetime" etc. Students can't learn anything meaningful about the latter subjects because they are far too advanced. This is a cunning way of suggesting standards are increasing: difficult material on basic topics (i.e. Newtonian mechanics) is removed, and replaced with meaningless material relating to absurdly advanced topics.

The best A-Level physics candidate in the UK cannot compute the time it takes for a ball to roll down a hill, based on the current curriculum. But ask them to read off the six different quark flavours, they'll do it!

Have some :rolleyes: yourself because you are as wrong as wrong can be.

During recent years all of the parties, but especially Labour and the Conservatives have moved to the center ground. There is little in their policies to tell them apart now.

He said they were the same. They are not. Gravitation towards similar points of outlook, ideals and votes, maybe. The same? Hardly.

I don't intend to get a suspension for reminding anyone of the OP's political leanings so I suggest you do a quick search on, oh, whatever and whomever you like :)

That's partly why I said it. I have no idea how it would be implemented. There are so many teachers that abuse the system, and there's sod all that schools can do about it, they're pretty much powerless at the moment.

Some of the stories my wife tells me about certain colleagues/ teachers in other schools make me sick.
 
Cabinet ministers accused George Osborne, the Shadow Chancellor, of using the politics of the “big lie” after alleging that Labour had secret plans to raise income tax by 3p in the pound if it won the general election.

Who here thinks Labour have any chance at all of winning the next general election.

Umm by profit i mean they pay back a hell of a lot more than they took over time. ie profit for the government.

OK. The banks will pay back what they owe plus the minimum they can get away with (whatever the Interest Rate the money is loaned at presumably) and thus the banks would have survived a mess of their own creation. Said banks will then go back to their old ways (hell some already have).

Meanwhile until said monies are paid back the government has a many billion pound hole in its finances that we the hard working people of Britain (not the people on benefits and not the more than well off) will have to dig deep to pay off. Given that we are already taxed to the ears this is not going to be a good time to be a worker.

I am also willing to bet that we won't see any benefits from the Government when they do get this money back from the banks.
