I know I shouldn't have had this thought, but do you think that some folk will assume from this that a PSE section is imminently to be included in the Birmingham 11+??

I actually feel really sorry for the school, which from what I have heard is a good one.

The media is appearing to suggest that the school is at fault here and are unnecessarily overblowing the 'Catholic' part as if that should demonstrate hypocrisy ... but in reality this tutor was not a member of their staff but hired some classrooms and was in a part of the building where he was not supposed to be. He was found and the school took action immediately. Not sure what else they could have done.

Seems to be a bit of a theme in Birmingham at the moment though...not long ago the Chair and Headteacher of a large secondary state school were found....ahem....together...and have both had to resign.

Lol, how very dare you! You make it sound like midsummer murders!!

No, know there is completely serious side to this story, but had decided the forum needed a little humour for a Saturday, for those interested, so was being a little irreverent. Sometimes there is a funny side to news stories, at least for those not concerned. Hard to find that with many of the stories in the news at the moment of course.......

I was more shocked they hired rooms out to him for him to tutor the 11+. :lol:
