Covid outbreak at my son's school

[Notch7]

or people who were written off at school by narrow minded teachers who then went on to become millionaires

Im not really sure it's "narrow minded teachers"
Surely what they write on a report is determined by a pupils attendance, effort, discipline etc at the time.

These days children are "written off" because schools exclude children rather quickly.....it is a handy way to cull the poor performers that would damage their league table.

All good. Then shut the cluck up about teachers then. What's it to you?

Teachers I know predict academic performance based on the child's name. Each town will have a cluster of surnames that get badged. We all look at life through our own lens, so an academic is going to value academia above other skills such as communication.
