They have standards ???
My mate asked if I'd help his youngest with some of her school work a while back, as he's not that academical himself & he's fine with it, after looking at a few odds & ends I couldn't see any consistency with the marking. The teacher would pick up some errors, yet in the same paragraph there were other glaring mistakes which went unchallenged. I asked about why they'd not been pointed out & corrected, "Oh, miss so&so, isn't bothered by that !" Come again ?
So the nippers in this class are heading out into the wider World, already at a disadvantage due to the lack of correction (ability ?) of teaching staff & the longer it goes on the more ingrained the mistakes become & it's then harder for the child to rectify their ways.
