Re: Is this Tesco Director right
It is simple really, some highly educated might be glad of a job at Tesco the way things are with jobs now. I find it quite a snobbish statement to suggest that working at Tesco is beneath them.

Re: Is this Tesco Director right
I think it snobbish and bigoted to call all young persons applying for work at Tesco to be illiterate yobs (which is what that Tesco director did - and what that thread is about)
Forgive me for jumping in to defend young people:rolleyes: |

BBC NEWS | UK | Education | Many graduates 'lack soft skills' extract- "In terms of starting salaries, the best-paying employers are in investment banking - with graduates entering on about £36,000. Law firms and business consultancies are next highest. At the lower end of the pay scale, the lowest graduate starting salaries are in transport and retail jobs, which typically pay £20,000. There are considerable regional differences - with the typical London graduate starting salary being £27,500 - while in East Anglia pay rates are going downwards, with a typical starting salary of £19,000.

After 50 years of the comprehensive education system I would have thought they might have worked this out by now. __________________ I think you will find you have got your figures wrong,again.:rolleyes: Perhaps after listening to the war of the worlds you were the 1.000,000.000 to one chance.:D |

What is wrong with a system that tries to engage everyone on some level rather than shoehorning children into some pre-ordained curriculum in a desperate attempt to get statistics 'right' in Westminster? Another thing worth noting is that I learned far more about life in the 7 years working at a cash-and-carry during (and beyond) my further education than I ever did sat at a desk in class. Most people's first job is a bit on the lousy side but it doesn't half teach you the value of money and makes you appreciate what hard work is. Most store assistants that I have spoken to in any supermarket have been polite and helpful but since they are the ones doing the actual work on the shop floor it seems that the director creaming off £???k per year is the one who could learn a thing about biting the hand that feeds you. |

Third point,No one said the employees were unhelpful,The article was aimed at the demise of the education system.A point that you seem to agree with in one sentence but not in another. One a final note,Stop concerning yourself with what one of the directors of Britain's largest private sector employers gets paid. |
Re: Is this Tesco Director right
The demise of education systems is a common complaint over here too .... among all the many reasons indiscipline, watering down of content etc., I believe that one major problem that receives too little attention is that students are no longer allowed to fail; they are pushed through because failure is viewed as something that will distress the little dears .... all students entering school (esp. secondary school) should be given t-shirts emblazoned with: "Failure Is Always an Option". We are what we are as a species because we experiment, courting failure as we go along. We learn, I believe, more from our failures than our successes; in fact, most of our successes (in the kitchen for example; there is always viagara for failures in the bedroom) are born of failure.
To get a good view of how schools are failing the students, try teaching entry level classes at university. |
Re: Is this Tesco Director right
i thought it was pretty much common knowledge that exams have been made easier to increase pass rates so we appear to be on par with the rest of europe.Rather than increase quality of teaching ,reduce classroom sizes and introduce discipline into schools its much easier and cheaper to fudge pass rates
