Subject: RE: BS: £800 fine for low school attendance
"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."

At last. Someone dares to stand up and tell the truth about *some* schools. Thank you.




Yes, there are many teachers and children who are suffering for different reasons and it's making both sides deeply unhappy at times.
Neither side has any right to make the other feel miserable or picked on. There has to be a New Way out there...and part of that way has to be teaching Responsibilites hand in hand with Rights. Perhaps some parents need evening classes in that too, in which case, open up the schools and let 'em in too.
