    See if you can figure this out without looking at the spoilers:

    "This Government trusts the professionals. That's why we want to give teachers greater freedoms and reduce unnecessary bureaucracy. Since I have been shadowing education and more recently held the brief in Government there has been one organisation of whose purpose and benefit to teachers I am deeply sceptical -
    the General Teaching Council for England
    . I believe this organisation does little to raise teaching standards or professionalism. Instead it simply acts as a further layer of bureaucracy while taking money away from teachers."

    Who said it?
    Michael Gove, UK Education Secretary

    But I know what you were thinking...

    Just like here.

    Teaching council is a shambles.

    WASTE OF MONEY!

    In education, we like to slavishly follow the UK, usually AFTER they've discovered (and sometimes announced) they made a mistake.

    Then we get it translated into Irish and publish it again.

    Go on, just for the hell of it, we'll send it by registered post on fancy paper.

    Worth every penny.
