About: While accepting that teaching has its share of charismatic personalities, it is plainly foolish to expect all staff to be so charismatic that they should be able to 'sell' education and training (particularly suspect or substandard education) to even the most reluctant student. It is not possible to accept any of the arguments put forward above about the conscriptive nature of the new further education, the choking of resources from the further education sector, and the contradictions inherent in the recruitment and training of staff,a nd at the same time expect all staff to be able to deal with the often understandable disaffection of some students.     Permalink
