I've got no problem with home education. I've worked in that area myself. To be honest, the way schools are at the moment, I'm not surprised that so many parents are taking their children out of school and educating them at home.

Maybe I have been teaching for too long. We all know that I only do it so that I have lots of holidays to go to festivals. I'm hoping to retire soon for the benefit of my health as my doctor says that I will be seriously ill if I continue. I won't be able to corrupt young people any more if I get my wish - and they won't get the chance to follow me around in gangs singing offensive songs about me. Yes I do know what it's like to be picked on.
