It is the 21st Century. This is bullshit!

My daughter started a new school.
She has come home with 3 seperate sets of paper.

Each with 2 pages printed front and back.

2 of the are the exact same.

Why the fuck do I have to wrote out her address 3 seperate times?! Why do i have to wrotes my email 4 times?! Her name so many times..
And on and on.

Im not doing the duplicate one. They can look at the other one.

But seriously its 2025! There should be a better system.

I hear you on the pointlessness of some stuff...

But...

Autocorrect never said wrotes... it's not a word...

Haha. Why are you on Mumsnet if you hate us all so much?

Well, you sound like an absolute delight. Fancy writing that to try and prove your point.

Because sometimes it's a relaxing laugh
Sometimes you get a thread of chilled people just having a rant and a laugh and thats all I wanted while I was frustrated and fried.

But I didn't get that did I?

I wrote exactly what I wanted and needed to.
It conveyed my point beautifully.
It was a stupid comment.

Poor teachers. Whatever they get paid, it’s not enough

Life is too short to be so bitter and angry. You’re only making yourself look like a massive knob. Go have a glass of wine and chill out. Bye 👋

Master bates wasn't he in Captain Pugwash

I am a teacher, and you're right.

Especially SEN teachers.

Or milk and a cookie 🍪

Im genuinely not bitter or angry.
I dont drink.
Just scrolling looking for something to watch with not a care what random names online think.
I could be one of your family, colleagues, your child's teacher and you wouldnt know.

Your comment about mothers in Gaza is beyond belief.

It would be better if they could just pop a VR headset on, swallow a few GCSE-ultra pills and let the AI robot teachers do the teaching.

I mean....can these robots do personal care and complete physio programmes because of so score!

Definitely be a way to save staff from the gouging and biting.

🤣 It was an urban myth I do believe?
Along with Roger the cabin boy and Sea men Staines!

I know but still good fun 😊

Nothing that can't be dealt with by Prosecco...

Definitely! I can even hear theme tune now! 😆

Actually everyone else did get the electronic form, but they'd heard about your dodgy autocorrect...😉

I loved all those style of cartoon growing up in the 70s.

I just don't fill them out. If they're important, they'll send them again. A lot of the time they don't so it's an easy win.

😂😂

I agree, boils my piss. When my kids started primary they told us the form covered their whole time at the school. They lied, every bloody year it came round. Secondary was the same but they went online last year at least. My youngest is in air cadets and every event I have to fill in 2 forms for him. The spaces are always tiny for the details they want and for normal sized handwriting as well. So I know it’s petty in the grand scheme but it annoys me too!

All paper should be banned from schools.
