    I thought this was meant to be a friendly place to discuss biking?
    Evidently not. I'll try and keep my head down.

  3. The £5 USB camera I got from eBuyer had that sort of software, too.

    Heh, that's funny.

  9. But private schools are consumer driven (consumer being the people who
    pay). Have crap teachers at any school and the word gets around. A state
    school is limited in who they can employ by cost and availability. A
    private school buys in the best to keep its name.
    Minimum being the operative word. Qualify as a PE teacher and you could
    be teaching maths or English at a Kent state school without any more
    experience.

    Or as came to light under a government directive "Instruct the colleges
    not to fail students who were applying to become teachers, no matter how
    bad those students are"[1]. As a way of increasing the number of
    teachers.

    In some cases this is very important. But better quality teaching comes
    tops to. Often these two go together.
    Most of the teachers I know would love to be able to get a job in a
    private school. If only so they don't get physically and verbally abused
    by parents so much.

    [1] This is from memory the quote may not be 100% correct.
