9.6.14 Carry On Teacher


Carry On Teacher



11-year-old Elise Smith had her mouth sellotaped for 15 minutes by a teacher who'd asked everyone to stop talking.  The outraged father is pictured with his offspring in the Mail Online, and is not happy.  As far as I am concerned, his chatterbox of a daughter will have learned a lesson - and will perhaps decide to stop talking when everyone manages to do so.  The father has of course taken offence and expected the teacher to be suspended, because that's what parents do by default these days, and he has stated that "teachers cannot lay a finger on children these days".  No comment, then, on why his daughter could not handle a simple instruction, or show any respect for the teacher? Hmmm.  As for keeping her off school, well that didn't last, as the girl missed her friends.  It's gratifying to learn that the teacher has been reprimanded but not suspended over the matter.  I believe the girl has decided to shut up.  What a storm in a teacup.  Carry on, teacher.
