Except, Hugo doesn't call himself a graduate, he calls himself a teacher. Both the schools he claims he worked at issued statements to say he was only on placement for 8 weeks as part of his PGCE, and have gone on to say he was not employed with them. So he now has no teaching career available, if even his placement schools want to distance themselves from him.
So he is unemployed, as he doesn't have his chosen trade to fall back on. And a bum, for lying about it on national TV, getting called out by the schools, and tanking his career prospects before he's done even a year of teaching! He's built his whole identity on the premise he loves being a teacher (rather than just saying he's a student/graduate, like others do). If I went on a date with a guy who told me he was a teacher, and then it turned out he wasn't and could never actually be employed as one - I would be fuming.[/quote]
Unemployed? Technically they all probably are. A bum? Deary me.
MN has really gone off the deep end this year with jumping to conclusions.
He's a young guy who did a PGCE and now having fun in a game show and will bank some money from it and maybe have some opportunities that may or may not pan out.
He might go back to teaching or won't. He's grabbed the chance of doing something different. Good for him!
Lighten up!
