I know a former headmaster who predicted this happening ages ago. The first time a pupil swore at him he decided that teaching was no longer for him. He retired early and that was back in the eighties.

Aye, :icon_rolleyes: ... seems that school standards are getting to be more and more slipshod these days. Particularly in terms of the general lack of proper discipline and educational attainment ... :anerikke: ... like what was and is portrayed on television in fictional schools, such as the infamous Grange Hill & Waterloo Road, for example. :bigcry:

I agree Arthur.

Those soap opera type TV programmes showing bad behaviour and ignorance in schools don't help either.
They are lining pockets, and pandering to the philosophy and politics of a few.

Maybe it is true to life in SOME schools...so what ?

Children should be shown positive role models (who can also speak proper English), not idiots and thugs.
