  • This is a song? It's shit. You need to wake up and realise that all your teacher mates overseas get reviewed against a set of standards that are applied nationally. Why can't you? why the fear? If national standards reveals all teachers to be like you, i'm going private. Another thing I have to bear the burden of tax and a good education for my children.

  • @pnsbreath Funny, I thought that National flagged the standards as a way of raising achievement in our under achievers? So are you saying that they are lying that it's about reviewing teachers?

    Are you judging my teaching when you say you will go private if it reveals all teachers are like me? My teaching is judged by my parents.

    Or perhaps teachers shouldn't have opinion! Incidentally I pay taxes just like you and my highly successful children were educated in the public system.
