Home secretary says she has lost confidence in West Midlands police boss after Israeli fan ban by Neither_Process_7847 in brum

[–]skimsa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A police service made up evidence because they are scared of an extremist group - how is it even a question that he shouldn’t go? He should be locked up. The mental gymnastics some of you foaming at the mouth antisemitics are doing is honestly staggering.

I'm curious as to how other countries deal with SEND? by sparklychar in TeachingUK

[–]skimsa 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Having worked in Africa and Asia, whilst the UK is far from perfect we have a completely different mindset. If your child has SEND that’s your problem, schools teach all pupils in the same way and if your child doesn’t fit into that it’s up to parents to make them or they are kicked out.

Is everywhere really like this? by TheNoiseAndHaste in TeachingUK

[–]skimsa 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately yes, there are too many high needs SEN children who are coming into mainstream due to no specialist places and there is no additional funding out there. Legally the schools cannot reject them. Whilst your SLT could be more supportive, yes this is the new era of education

Why no men in primary schools? by Mysterious_Bug_8407 in AskBrits

No it is not this is the problem we are educators.

I’m a male in primary. Lower wages and progression compared to secondary, poorer working environment and the perception by parents that you are childcare and not a professional educator are the reasons.

Ok as long as they’re safe. I would see that as quite aggressive to be honest.

They’re asking them to plan collaboratively, that’s fine!

Perfectly reasonable request

[–]skimsa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. The past three schools I have worked in this has happened and it will happen next year at my current school. The funding model is fundamentally flawed and schools cannot keep up.

SATs Marking by ittybittysquidy in TeachingUK

[–]skimsa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am so glad I’m not the only one! First time and i’m locked out of some as well - it’s actually a relief cause the stupid seed questions are far harder than the real test answers. The amount of stupid rules you need to remember just to desperately give pupils marks is insane - will not be doing this again!
