    hence the ‘Oxbridge reject’ syndrome crippling people for the rest of their lives

    I went to Durham, so met a lot of those…

    Interesting to here from you Miketually

    I use to live in Darlington and teach in Northallerton

    Now I teach at Luton Sixth Form College. Looks like your college is doing a great job, impressive stuff

    Yeah, we do pretty well 🙂

    Sadly, recent cuts to funding have increased our class sizes and the hours each teacher has on timetable, plus the support staff we have here have been decimated as they’re simply not replaced as they leave. All this is increasing teacher workload, and the stress is starting to show; everyone is knackered. Scarily, the worst cuts to funding haven’t hit yet.

    ISTR research showing that by far the strongest indicator of a child’s performance is the amount of support they get from their parents. The type of school is very much a secondary consideration.
