The spelling is appalling, glad to see my taxes are being well spent on education in this country - do teachers claim for second homes too

You can't lay all the blame at the teacher's feet. As the saying goes 'you can lead a horse to water but...' I prefer to say 'never teach a pig to dance, it will frustrate you and irritate the pig'.

The parents can be just as much to blame, but some teachers are just as disinterested thinking that they are fighting a losing battle - there's a lot of factors, but it's just easier to blame one

I thought the whole ad was very descriptive! It would certainly get people to spend a bit of time poring over it.

I am going to make an offer for both cars and maybe throw in 'half-ounce of green and a six pack of Stella to 'sweeten' the deal!'

What a plank.
