I've always said. " if you're thick, you're thick". The fabric of a building unfortunately cannot change that. Young tufty's results confirms my belief.
In that case Scoop all that remains is for us all to hope that you are not a teacher.

It took you a few days to come back with that reply. take a positive and use it as a negative, a commonly used trick in this subject.

If you have additional support needs then a school facility and the teachers should be able to support you in your journey. Sports, arts, social and technical subjects may be your strength but you would only discover that if the full curriculum is open to you.
Imagine what a new school could offer to the full range of abilities.

Any teacher of sort should know better than describe a child as thick.

Ah.I see you were off the day they held the, never call a child thick workshop. And you must have missed the whole debate on how the environment affects learning. No offence but I'm glad I can be fairly certain you don't teach my child.

Thickness tends to be a genetic thing, it's not age specific, and in my experience when people start their sentences with " no offence" that is the exact opposite of what they mean. I'm not offended though, my rhino skin is too thick now. That isn't genetic. You can be certain that I don't teach your child, or any child for that matter, and as for the workshops, I never get to go on any now on account of being too non-PC. My last suggestion for a workshop " if you're thick you had better be good looking" didn't even get put to the workshop committee.

I blame it on a distinct lack of compulsory PE during her formative years. If only she'd played more rugby things could have been so different #-o
