Not just an election winner John, but a very naughty boy who tells fibs and acts the clown in front of the whole class, despite this, the other pupils and most of the teachers love him. Recently he's been so naughty that the headmaster made him apologise to the whole school. Not content with an apology, the headmaster is now threatening to expel him and he's withdrawn into his shell a bit, gone very quiet. The teachers are a little concerned and wondering if they've perhaps been a little too harsh on him.
The board of governors meet next week to examine his behaviour and if they're not too critical and he avoids expulsion I suspect the little mite will bounce back with a flourish to his old mischievous self.
He'll crack a few jokes, say something incomprehensible and throw in a few words of latin. Oh how we'll laugh,
