Thanks tanker I could do with a nice Christmas present.

maggie . teachers are going to fight for there pensions .
but will NOT fight to correct teachers rules to teach .
so money means more to them than the job that they do .
there pockets they will fight for but will not fight to give children
what they need and remember children do not no about what is in the big wide world when they leave teachers do .
speaks volumes does it not .

maggie go to telford and take a look at thomas telford school the children
walk round with there heads upright .

maggie i see that you can not reply to the truth,
money is there god

shame your old school never taught you english and grammar and spelling!

and modesty......

cynic i had to leave school at 14 to work we where a poor family
and i have said many times that i am not educated but i am when it comes
to common sense and making money which i have retire at 54 and have more money than i will ever spend

we may go red soon

skin i take it you have to rely on work or benefits

No to both - modesty prevents me from saying more :-)

skin all i do is say before i buy not after they go up or down like most do .
then called liars

skin i bet the holders of SKR had taken notice of my posts

Tanker re post 3565 Did not reply sooner because I mind my grandchildren and was out walking them and the dog Isn't life fun! Teachers are powerless when it comes to setting rules for teaching the govt sets those without consultation with the mere teachers ELB's agree the rules and teachers' unions do nothing. Doesn't everyone work for money? Nice if you don't need to. The majority of teachers go into teaching because they like teaching children it's a very lonely depressing job if you don't. As regards striking over pensions I think it's wrong in fact I think the majority of strikes are pointless, the strikers will all loose a day's pay (quids in for the govt) but their union bosses, who earn twice as much as an average teacher, will not. They need to face the fact that ,through no fault of their own, there is no money, except for bankers, and negotiate the best deal possible

Apologies Negotiate was meant to be in bold & underlined not the rest. Will have to work on that! Away now to feed the hordes.

maggie you sound a very nice caring person and wish you all the good fortune
you deserve .
back to my posts i am not educated left school at 14 now 63.
i was just pointing out that they will fight for money but not for the power to correct pupils ,any good luck to your very good self
