God that woman that the bullied girl went to in tears was lacking in empathy.

I thought bad that poor lad couldn't divide 12 by 3.

Good on mr drew- have a bit of a crush thing going on Blush

I know quite a few adults who would panic at the 12/3 question. Sad but true

learningtofly · 29/09/2011 21:37

Mr Drew is fab! I wish I had had a teacher like him

Sorry duplicate post

NormanTebbit · 29/09/2011 21:40

Christ imagine dealing with this nonsense all day

fivegomadindorset · 29/09/2011 21:41

Lippy little mare.

HairyToe · 29/09/2011 21:41

Oh and the texts they came up with are clearly based on tv/films they've seen. They didn't really mean it, just thought it was funny .

I have three little girls - I am dreading the teenage years

NedSchneebly · 29/09/2011 21:44

Good on the mum for being 100% behind the school. So many parents wouldn't support the school and would make excuses for their kids. . . ( am teacher, and have seen it, not just making generalised statement!)

NormanTebbit · 29/09/2011 21:47

Blimey it's all unravelling a bit now

RitaMorgan · 29/09/2011 21:49

They're a nightmare!

wellwisher · 29/09/2011 21:51

What a DREADFUL family. Kudos to Mr Drew for handling them so well.

Why do all these young boys have ridiculous pudding-bowl hair? They look like the Monkees.

NedSchneebly · 29/09/2011 21:53

I'd gave had more a go at gobby big sister for mouthing off at a pupil at the school. Kind of goes against pupils being safe in school, even the little shits. .

Mind you, she might gave swung for lovely mr drew if he told her off!

bruffin · 29/09/2011 21:54

My Ds had that haircut he is also a Sam, but he is never in trouble. The girls loved his hair.

ApocalypseCheeseToastie · 29/09/2011 22:00

Oh I liked Sam, in his defence tho that other kid was an annoying little twerp, as for his mum and sister Shock

Bears arse springs to mind.

CleanHankie · 29/09/2011 22:02

Why, if they are so strict on Uniform, was the text sending girl wearing fluorescent pink leg warmers? Hmm

Can understand the crush thing whoever said that. He's lurverly

bruffin · 29/09/2011 22:03

He was permanently excluded in the end but was allowed back for exams

NedSchneebly · 29/09/2011 22:09

I just want them to be made to do their ties up properly, or don't make them wear them!

NedSchneebly · 29/09/2011 22:10

Mr drew is mine. . .Smile

KurriKurri · 29/09/2011 23:03

Love Mr Drew, he's brilliant.

teafanatic003 · 29/09/2011 23:50

love mr drew , he seems to get it! not alot of teachers do

when he said 'there not adults there children..and children just ...do things' really hit the nail on the head.

And also nI think the sister was more in the wrong than sam, i mean she must be well into her 20's

My hubby is related to Mr Drew, and we are just loving the show and can't get enough of it. I do think that the school day (and evening) has certainly changed since our day of attending. I think that the relationship between Mr Drew and the head is just great, a caring united front for the kids.

We must have rules, as when the kids get into the working world, driving cars, etc there are rules to follow. Well done Mr Drew just loving it.

I'm really saddened by tonights episode. Poor Vinny Sad
