Teachers - repressed politicians?

    i am really sick of ignorant teachers using the classroom as a podium on which to air their views on various topics and their students as captive audience on which to enforce their own opinions.
    i was just wondering if it had occurred to anyone else that this is a form of authorised propaganda. And i for one am just a tad fed up of it.

    Yeah Tis a bugger, look at it this way, it is actually working against the teachers as me you and nearly every other poor sod who has to listen to this ****e grows to resent teachers any more as I we needed any help. I wouldn't say it is authorised propeganda tho as I for one have a useful ability, ignoring them as soon as those magical five letters are mentioned, on the plus side I kept my French teacher talking about it for a whole class and avoided a bolickin for not doing my homework.

    Just think of it as practise for life in general, filtering out the mountain of chaff to find the few worthwhile grains of advice they can impart.

    You might be surprised at just how many teachers actually get actively into politics, even as much as to leave their teaching careers for it.
