Children can learn from bad teachers, Ofsted chair says
2010-07-13
It is not "an absolute disaster" if schools contain bad teachers, the chairman of the Office for Standards in Education (Ofsted) has told the BBC.
It's not an absolute disaster if the roads contain bad drivers, either... Oh. Wait. Maybe it is.
It depends -- are these bad teachers merely disorganized, or are they the kind that destroy a child's spirit?
Do the drivers just run red lights or are they drunk and on the wrong side of the road?
Zenna Atkins, stressing these were her personal views, earlier told the Sunday Times "every school should have a useless teacher".
... and every village should have an idiot. And every town should have a drunk.
She later said she did not mean schools should tolerate bad teachers.

just like every Office for Standards in Education should have a useless chairman?
