I always cheer up immensely if an attack is particularly wounding because I think, well, if they attack one personally, it means they have not a single political argument left.

Again, a governing body that has no idea of what the real job entails makes these sort of decisions and these days compulsary. Don't blast the teachers for it. It takes them out of the classrooms and away from teaching kids, which is the reason they studied to be teachers in the first place. There's more bureacracy in teaching than teaching itself these days. Do you really think the majority of teachers are happy with that. Like I said, the 13 weeks they get off aren't entirely a life of luxury. They spend a good deal of time getting things sorted for when the school reopens and a fair few of them spend the last few weeks back at school planning and getting clasrooms sorted for the next term/academic year. And the first few training days of the year ARE done when the kids are still on summer holidays.
YAWN!! Sounds like you had 52.

Alib's obviously just a sad troll who's jealousy is overcoming him today. Ignore him and he'll go away.

Haha no I don't, PIB. Most of my family are. Thought about it, but they advised me not to as it just isn't worth it. When I think of teh amount of shit I used to give teachers, I cringe.
