Don't know how many of you are going to agree with me on this but i am so angry with my ds's schools attitude on achieving.
Examples:
children were told before they took the eleven plus; only about five of you will pass this year; it doesn't matter if you don't pass; and after results from Head: i don't want to hear any talk about the 11 plus. if i do you will be in trouble!
School football; important games,best team is not put out,laughed at by other schools.
cross country names picked out of a hat,whether they wanted to or not,
Could go on and on.
Personally i don't think this is fair on the children that are good at sport and want to win for the school.
where has the fight and drive to do well gone? We wonder why kids can't be bothered to try! Am i going too far?
