      Now I think I can confidently say that you can't honestly tell me you have known of one teacher that has been dismissed on the grounds of being totally incompetent
      Teachers are now rarely given life long contracts for exactly that reason. Also recruitment of teachers is now much more rigourous with the teachers observed in front of a class as well as being interviewed. Initial contracts are now often for one year, teachers who are not up to scratch are not given a new contract.

        Yeah but you still never answered that you personally have not known of an incompetent being sacked for that reason , and the new terms you speak of isn't that what Gove was seeking ?

          Well as I said teachers not good enough are not sacked just don't have their contracts renewed, it's tantamount to the same thing. As to what various education Ministers are seeking, a regime of increasing workload, where the paperwork requirements increase year on year, and the constant denigration from them and OFSTED has led to teachers leaving in huge numbers. There is a huge crisis in teacher recruitment with thousands leaving every year.

          • This appears to be going off topic somewhat. There have always been crises and disagreements in education. In my time it was the change from grammar and secondary schools. I think the main problem nowadays is that kids have changed. When I was young we generally respected our teachers. This has changed somewhat and this has to be the problem of parents. Some parents think it is the job of teachers to bring up their kids.

              J you're right it's going off topic but the A level geographic teacher, east and co have attacked Gove on his past job while he has given the best reasons of all politicians
              As to whether we should stay or leave

                  I can never understand why individual ministers are blamed for things which happen in their department. They are put in charge of a department and have to carry out certain decisions made by the government of the day. It is not as if they make these decisions on their own.

                      Not only teaching profession, very similar issues facing our Police service.

                        • Geographic teacher here. I confess that the very presence of Gove raises my hackles. I can't help it. The main problem was his personal attitude when he was education boss. He never seemed to want to listen, whilst good teaching is all about listening.anyway, I will be out campaigning with my local MP on Saturday in Devizes. You never know I might persuade some to think again ( but not if I wear my Rangers shirt I fear ).

                              Read about that silly cow today. So it's taken her to get this far into the campaign to defect?!

                              Don't think she even knows what she wants does she? OUT
