Today we have a CHIEF INSPECTOR of schools who is applying the X FACTOR to teachers rather than the educational worth of a lesson.

Sad to say - learning some things is dull. It will always be dull....even if a teacher dresses up in a TUTU and juggles - French will always be dull to some pupils. Maths as well - that cant be turned into entertainment.

It shows how wrong our Education System is when it starts to APE the X Factor.

Sorry MR X or MISS Y - you are not exciting enough and you have been voted out this week by the OFSTED panel. You are being replaced by a Fire Eating ( H&S approved ) English Teacher who can also sing and play air guitar. Fantastic !!!

Job Adverts for teachers will ask for skills such as : instruments played - performance experience - looks.

Our country has gone totally crazy. To blame ill discipline on dull teachers is like blaming the economic downturn on dull BROWN speeches on the TV. The two have very little relation to each other.

Yes we can all remember being inspired at school - but when we delve deeper into our memories - that was often only occasionally because school equalled alot of hard graft to learn things.

Dull teachers often had the best results as well....because kids just got on with the work.

Maybe Simon Cowell will now be employed to do auditions for teachers. Crazy.

I don't think that they should keep fiddling with the education system, it seems to be working just fine as it is. This is bourne out by the fact that gcse and A'level results have improved year on year for 20 years and more people than ever go to University.
