Frightening to hear. I don't have children yet, but stories like this make me think about wanting to homeschool.

- harrytuttle 13y agoThis is exactly what we're doing after the incident and others. Two extracted, one will not be going to school. We have a strong home-teaching network in the area we are moving to (Cambridgeshire) so there will be plenty of opportunities for them to grow and learn. The other incidents included utterly sub-standard teaching [1], particularly with mathematics, bullying, actually receiving personal insults from heavily unionised teachers (for daring to speak up against the public sector - how dare I) and handing out "story books" from corporations (Lloyds in particular) to instill brands into the children from day one. [1] I obtained a marked SAT maths paper from the school for my daughter which had 40% of questions either mis-marked, unsolvable or missed (bear in mind I have an engineering degree, so I can add ;-) ).
