Alexikokopops Posted 5 September 2006 Posted 5 September 2006 This was the original In the new label it looks as though the Choclatey chap's sitting down to share a cuppa with the man in a skirt.

l444ry Posted 5 September 2006 Posted 5 September 2006 I came across the following episode recently=: "I work in a school as a Learning Support Assistant. Two weeks a go a boy of Afghan background vandalised a door and his classmates were asked to identify him. A very responsible girl wrote a statement in which she named the culprit and described him as Pakistani. The very PC head of year gave the girl a detention for 'racism' as according to the PC teacher the girl should have said south Asian....I kid you not. A member of the technical staff who witnessed the boy vandalize the door told the boy off and described his behaviour as 'idiotic'. The boy had also verbally abused the technician and used anti-white racist abuse and made a threat to 'beat up' the technician. The technician was disciplined for the use of the word idiotic and had to apologise to the Afghan who had verbally abused him and used racist anti-white language. The Afghan on the other hand was let off with a warning. He was withdrawn from certain subjects he disliked and was assigned a culturally sensitive support assistant to 'help him' overcome been called idiotic".

JadeFalcon Posted 5 September 2006 Posted 5 September 2006 dont mind me saying this whole country is focked up i will end my comments there as things like this really boil my blood
Daggers Posted 5 September 2006 Posted 5 September 2006 He was withdrawn from certain subjects he disliked and was assigned a culturally sensitive support assistant to 'help him' overcome been called idiotic". Damn right, the accepted term the technician should have used is "**** off you ****ing little ****ing sh*t or I'll kick you in the ****ing b*llocks!" If people do not pay attention when they are on costly courses paid for by the public then what do they expect?
Lineker's Left Foot Posted 5 September 2006 Posted 5 September 2006 I am politically correct, if it stops age/sex/racism etc... but hate it when it goes too far and we have to bend over backwards for immigrants in this country

l444ry Posted 5 September 2006 Posted 5 September 2006 Now what is the story from the other POV? Not sure Ken. The Guardian never followed the story up as far as I am aware.

Daggers Posted 5 September 2006 Posted 5 September 2006 Are they about to have a moment? That will get the anti-PC brigades goat

Makes me glad my youngest son didn't bother with conventional school. If that's the standard of fairness they apply you couldn't expect much in any other direction. Is the application of social unfairness and anti-white discrimination actually part of the curriculum now?
Daggers Posted 6 September 2006 Posted 6 September 2006 Makes me glad my youngest son didn't bother with conventional school. What form does an unconventional school take?
DanTheFoxBhoy Posted 6 September 2006 Posted 6 September 2006 I find it odd that some English people lump black dudes under the Pakistani banner, as though that's the only middle eastern / southern Asian country in the world. The fact that they might be Sri Lankan doesn't bother some. Geez I love Sri Lankans though, every one I've met has been a champ. They have this soap called 'Neighbourhood' over there in Sri Lankan, be on the look out for it
Thracian Posted 6 September 2006 Posted 6 September 2006 What form does an unconventional school take? Education Otherwise it's called. Anyone is allowed to educate their children away from school providing they can demonstrate that they are doing the job responsibly. It's not a system that's widely encouraged or publicised but it is perfectly legal and quite a lot of Leicestershire families choose it. An education authority inspector checks by arrangement that an education is being provided but that education doesn't have to follow the national curriculum.
golden gordon Posted 6 September 2006 Author Posted 6 September 2006 What, like this?!?!?!? what's that ? a camp ventriloquist ........."aye ready aye, a gottle o' geer"
Daggers Posted 6 September 2006 Posted 6 September 2006 Is the application of social unfairness and anti-white discrimination actually part of the curriculum now? In a word, no. I think that the curriculum coverage in schools has never been better coordinated and delivered. Education Otherwise it's called.

I'm not having a go, just genuinely interested, but kids that hang around with their parents all the time (and children to 'older' parents) tend to have problems communicating with their peers.

Daggers Posted 6 September 2006 Posted 6 September 2006 if the education system is so good with regard to social and cultural integration , how is it that there seems to be so much inter-racial unrest and suspicion Firstly, I made no mention of social and cultural integration ~ but to lay the blame for tensions at the doorstep of schools seems a mite unfair. I'm going to make no attempt to give a road map to cultural peace and harmony but I would argue that there isn't large scale inter-racial unrest and suspicion...I think this is a fiction trotted out by the Mail/Express/Sun/Star and News of the World to serve a political end. It panders to the sentiments of the far-right and is not borne out by my experience of living in Birmingham. Yes, in some communities tensions exist due to the idiotic actions of people on both sides of the divide. I'll quote Voltaire “The only way to comprehend what mathematicians mean by Infinity is to contemplate the extent of human stupidity.†In my experience, kids are born culturally blind...they see no divides. It is their parents that foist their bigotry upon them.
