I went to catholic school and in the final two years of intermediate we had to use ink pens. They use to make big messes in our books and on our fingers. It really bugged me we had to use ink pens for two years, when practically all other schools used ball points. Why did teachers feel we needed to use ink pens in the early 1980's and why did the stationery shops supply so many of them.

I am appalled at the amount of children who come on to this site for the answers to their homework. They have people working out their maths, re-writing sentences, and answering their questions. That is not the worst of my fears. Earlier today a parent came on here to get help doing his 6 year olds homework. He was asking how many uses does a piece of string have. He then went on to explain it was for his 6 year old daughters homework. He is already teaching his daughter to cheat and just use Yahoo answers. This is a serious issue and is not going to go away.

6 months ago, I gave in my Religious Education assesment on the Virgin Birth. I was told that when she got it, it was "very good" but had to be sent to County Hall RE co-ordinator, as I was trying for a level 8 and she couldn't mark that syllabus.
So, since then I've been asking several times a week wether she's got it back. All the time it was "No, it hasn't been sent back yet" until one day, she said, "The head of RE have sent an email to the woman at county hall to get it back",
Since then, it was "nothing back yet" until I was told that I got a level 8. Later on last year, I was told it was a 7, then last week a mid-6.
So, last week I said I wanted it back and I would be contacting County Hall directly and I would complain at the time. I got it back the next day - it hadn't been sent off in the first place.
So, both teachers must have lied when they said it was sent off to County Hall, and when they said they emailed them. I'm not happy about it AT ALL and wanted to know

what do you think ?

Pupils could have to stay in education until the age of 18 under plans being considered by Education Secretary Alan Johnson.
If adopted, it would be the first time the school leaving age has changed since 1972, when it was raised to 16.

The change, which would take place by 2013, would force all youngsters to stay at school, start an apprenticeship or begin workplace training.
