Return of REAL school sports: Tories to bring back competitive games in bid to turn nation back into sporting champions | Mail Online
At last some sense, its time we got away from left wing thinking that there should be no winners or losers in sport at schools, there are winners and losers in everyday life and that should also be reflected on the school sports fields

I'm a bit confused with this thread , my old 1960s "secondary modern" Norden at Rishton has been designated a "Sports College" now I know its never been in the catchment area (Gt. Harwood and Rishton) for the brightest brains , but if the Govt. has been against competitive sports whats the point of the 'Sports College' designation ...... is it still just a place to warehouse kids with low academic expectations , somewhere to produce 'fit and able' young guys for the military ?
Seem to remember when I was there the playing fields were directly under the high voltage power lines , are the kids attending this "sports college " still being exposed to this radiation
Be interesting to hear from any Accy web users who have children attending to let us know how this 'sports college' designation is working
Thanks :confused: :confused:

Re: At last some sense
 

that was a common set up for thinning of the herd

the athletic kids and acheivers would do sports and the less bright ones would fly kites :D

Re: At last some sense
 

All depends what the Tall Boy Was, and what was the Obstacle:)

I'm not surprised when education is going down the tubes faster than Special Brew goes down your throat, the time for sports is when kids can read and write fist;)

Re: At last some sense
 

Education today teaches children what to think and not how to think.
It is being used as a social engineering tool where conformity is taught as the way to be accepted in society.

Re: At last some sense
 

Think you're a bit off the mark on that one MargeR. If that's the case how come there's still quite a few decent Kids out there but also quite a few horrendous little scrotes ? These "Feral Kids" we hear so much about who seem to dominate news releases.

Re: At last some sense
 

Maybe those 'scrotes' were planned to be so, in order that we would accept/request the limitations on our freedoms that their actions cause.
It is all about controlling the masses.

You'll be telling us they're using subliminals on telly every night too Margaret:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

Re: At last some sense
 

Or the opium you are shifting..you stared this thread applauding Camerons public announcement that the tories will introduce more sports in schools.. now they have cut all funding for sports in schools you defend them..lay off the drugs mate.;)
