@Lord_Sugar It's amazing how far behind you are with current times, considering you’re a billionaire. People who work from home are more productive, which you'd know if you remove your head out of your backside long enough to see.

Nothing annoys me more than when a parent emails me, accusing me of not dealing with an incident of bullying even though their child has mentioned nothing to me. 😒 I swear some think we’ve got crystal balls and can see everything that goes on even when we’re not around?

Today marks the start of a new chapter - starting my new job as a qualified PE teacher. I’ve spent the last 10 years preparing for this - various roles in different schools alongside studying (degree, PGCE and SCITT). A little nervous but also excited and raring to go! 👊🏻

@VickyAlcock What rubbish. No teacher is going to ignore bullying or brush it under the carpet - at least in all of the schools I’ve worked in - it’s taken v seriously. If a parent doesn’t trust it’ll be dealt with then it’s not my fault - if I’m unaware I can’t do anything about it.

@FreddieScovell @Lord_Sugar The only thing poppycock is what that dinosaur thinks about people who work from home. I do not doubt that a small majority probably are less productive, but research has shown more people work longer hours and get more work done, as they don’t waste time commuting, etc.
