I don't find spelling nearly as important as reading comprehension.

Indeed.

Then again being as thick as is seen as charming in the right circles.

Ah, bloody hell, spent ages trying to find the right spelling for councillor as well, just to miss 'storeys'. 🙄

As in local government, elected official or as in someone to whom you go for support? The spellings are actually different.

@Cam22 if it's someone they are naming local authority housing after then it's going to be the elected official isn't it? Which is the spelling that the poster used .

Kids being generally a bit grubby and unkempt (if you're rich enough, it's just "bohemian", and probably a sign that the kids will grow up to be fiercely independent and capable 🙄)

A mum I follow on sm who fits the bill as mc, calls herself an earth mother & ecowarrior... Even cringier is that she calls her feral kids... "feral, free-spirited wildlings" 😂
She's such an eco warrior that they have two hols a year plus an annual ski trip to Colorado... I guess their carbon footprint doesn't count!

the 2nd language - it depends on the languages as already said by a PP.

Polish/romanian/urdu etc etc as a first language and english as a 2nd will be viewed differently from being bilingual in another european language or learning chinese etc.

The Polish & Romanian I know are very cultured & well read with much better spoken & written English than most of the English I know... That's a mad statement!
The Eastern Europeans in dc's school with English as a second language are extremely high achievers both academically & musically...

Nobody is saying it is based in fact! Quite the reverse.

People are saying that Jacinta learning Mandarin in pre-prep is viewed as a “naice” middle class thing to be boasted about, whereas Mihaela being trilingual in Romanian, Russian and English, is being written off as “thick” for speaking with an accent.

Lazy working class kid at school ...feckless ...won't amount to anything ext ext.

Lazy middle class kid ...oh He's an original. Can't be bothered with all the petty rules ...and I support him in that 😁

Oh yes a very MC acquaintance had a feral child whose "inquisitive mind always seeks to question authority figures" & "he loves & is encouraged to push the bounderies"... 😂
