The PE department would've eaten you alive....

FFS and you think he sounds like a tool ๐Ÿ˜ฏ

Those who can do. Those who cant teach. Those who cant teach teach PE

Badge. Of. Honour.

Interestingly, over 88% of school leaders are ex-PE. Less than 0.073 are physics teachers. Fact.*

*This fact is probably true.

Ah, that old debate. Which requires more intellect, rounders or general relativity.

As for the OP, do you have a cape as well as super pendant powers?

see only PE teacher would post up "evidence" of people who dont teach to prove they can teach ๐Ÿ˜‰
I though the highest was from History FWIW.

All about the win Mr Yard; all about the win...

I was at a conference a year ago when they mentioned a 'stat' regarding School Leaders and their respective 'disciplines'. Whilst it's not the percentage I stated, I'm led to believe that ex-PE staff lead the field. Typically though, when it was declared, an audible [i]'yessssssssss'[/i] could be heard from several tables in the vicinity.

The least uninteresting thing I've learned from this thread is that the swear filter doesn't appear to work on tags. Wahey!

Mark, your introducing yourself as "a member of the institute of physics" makes you way more insufferable than aracer IMO.

Nah, not by a long way.

Ooooh, another member of [b]The Institute of Physics.[/b]

Do you have the O-level?

Hey! They have an [b]affiliate membership for ยฃ88![/b]

http://www.iop.org/membership/join/affiliate/page_51400.html

Al - with my knowledge of bone torsion in a range of proximal/distal bone lengths in obese children, and your studies into braking forces on balsa/carbon/tin foil bikes, we're a shoo-in to be accepted!

Well I was going to retain my modesty, but I have in fact studied Physics at university level, which I think would qualify me to teach it, so I'd prob be one of their most academic members (pun intended).

Is Professor Higgs a member? If lectured us. My GF used to swim with his Mrs-apparently he was a true geek/genius....would confess to thinking about particle physics during most activities.

STW is far, far less guilty of this than many others I've read

Sounds of furious backpedalling.

Hey aracer, you haven't said 'strawman' for a good few threads; say it again and maybe someone will pick up on it.

Well, PE is [b]Physical[/b] Education, so more or less same thing, no?

It was Chemistry I found really boring. I mean, it's fun to blow stuff up, but when it gets onto all those equations and stuff, my mind glazes over and I get distracted by other things such as pretty pictures and ladies' bottoms and stuff. ๐Ÿ˜ณ

I'm a member of the Ponds Institute.

Going by his Twitter it looks like we upset him.

At least he can do some high level physics as a stress buster right now.

but I have in fact studied Physics at university level,

Walk into the wrong lecture? We've all done that. I think I've studied economics at university level once or twice.

No, I sat honours level in first year, but my point was that it's no big deal.

Maybe this might help Mark?

Or perhaps this?

Or maybe this one?

I think the link for the last one is broken though...
