You just want the 13 weeks holiday and the membership in NUT so that you can go on strike over pensions, you will do anything to damage the future of our children you nasty man! What kind of teaching is it? Are you go general primary school or single subject high school?
Cheers guys, bricking it a bit but feel well prepared. Got the interview day tomorrow, should be fun. I'll start patching together a tweed and leather jacket tonight. @grim: this one will be the 16+ group; should be a good range to teach (if I get that far, of course). Gah, such a torturous wait!
Homer Simpson disagrees. @monsly Christ, you're gonna face the pointy end of rebellious adolescence. If want them to behave, you should do what my maths teacher did. Grow a beard, shout a lot and brook no quarter from anyone. Then, every so often, bring out an inflatable parrot and peck people with it.
@Chi Loving that you got the reference. Sorry about my comment a while back about you not being funny anymore. I take it back with revengeance.
Things have gone well - some pretty stressy tests but I've done OK I think. Up against 5 others. Just having lunch now and then 3 of us are eliminated! It's just like the apprentice!
Will there be long dramatic pauses like on TV talent shows.. "And first person WHO will NOT be a teacher at this school..... is... ... ... ... Dave" I hope your tests involved the Kryton Factor flight simulator and assault course, the memory round can go fuck itself.
Nothing so interesting I'm afraid. Had a student group session which I was shitting it about but that went really well. Think I've done OK but it's so hard to say. I wonder if they'll do an X Factor and split us into 2 different rooms?
They should snap a snooker cue in half and toss the one with the pointy end at you two. Tryouts... Two applicants enter, one employee leaves. Or bring on the Travelator!
It's a picture of a gay black version of willie wonker saying Nigga you gay. It's funnier than it sounds.
