Wackford Squeers lives! (If anyone was wondering what Katherine Birbalsingh is up to now)



Michaela Community School (Wembley) is advertising for a "detention director" who is a believer in "tough love"...


Posted on the Times Educational Supplement, the advert states: “Do you like order and discipline? Do you believe in children being obedient every time? Do you believe that allowing children to make excuses is unkind?


“If you do, then the role of detention director at Michaela Community School, could be for you.”...

Discipline is at the heart of the advert, which continues: “This role isn’t suited to a would-be counsellor or to someone who wants to be every child’s best friend."...
