school signage

[tom73]

The new outside signage is now up we have visibly now become the latest branch in a growing academy chain.

The last bit of our school identity now gone and students are now under full control. Anything outside of control mean's isolation from the rest of the robots.

I am just waiting for my new ID and lanyard so I too can be fully assimilated.

Will the last person turn out the light's.

Unrelated but amusing at the time:

I took the youngest to college last week, and dutifully followed the car park signs.
Unfortunately they used the same signs for cars and pedestrians, so I ended up arriving outside the car park with a whacking great steel post in the way. Cue some delicate and embarassed reversing.

Remember when schools were schools and not Academies, when pupils were pupils and not students or learners, when head teachers were head teachers and not principals, when maths was maths and not numeracy?

If as much effort was put into teaching kids as goes into making up silly names for things then we'd be a nation of Einsteins.

You missed of executive principles , cover supervisors to name two. But then again back in day school was not seen as a business to make money and YP as mealy data on a spreadsheet.

Do you work in a school?

Do you work in a school?

Yes and part of other role often has me in other's schools.

I mourn the loss of the art of apostrophe usage myself!

Hopefully the OP will visit that site.

And 'read, learn, and inwardly digest' as my history teacher used to say.

Bring back the throwing of board rubbers at childrens forheads.

For missing an apostrophe and making a smelling pistake* in the same short post?

You can't throw the chalk any more because it once went in the mouth of a sleeping student and they choked. (not really)

* - it is a universal constant that any post criticising educational standards must contain at least one error, so this is my attempt to pre-empt it.

Bring back the throwing of board rubbers at childrens forheads.

My maths teacher threw a board rubber at a classmate - he whipped open his desk, ducked behind it, and the rubber hit the desk lid.

The same teacher punched the wall mounted blackboard and cracked it.

Ah the good old days....
We had one teacher, maybe 6 ft and then some, bony and thin, hands like shovels. If he caught you, a smack over the back of the head was like being hit with a cricket bat .
I do remember chalk being thrown at errant kids, not blackboard rubbers though

Ecoutez et repetez as my teacher used to say.
