Yes, pity teachers

9:29am Thursday 9th August 2001

I AM carrying out refurbishment work in Greenwich Schools, three down, four to go.

Continued disruptions in class, objects thrown all over the place, teachers accused of swearing, lots of backchat, spitting in school, windows broken, gangs picking on individuals I've seen it all.

I've now had accusations levelled at me and I fully understand how teachers feel when accused. I was tempted to throw a punch.

Teachers should lay into the troublemakers, then resign and stick two fingers up to the do-gooders!
