When did they actually learn anything?

Like I said earlier , the 70s was when education hit rock bottom 

80's wasn't much better, I remember a phase in my own children's school where 'spelling' and 'handwriting' was not deemed as important and the 'content' of mispelt badly written work was deemed as an expression because the child could read it to the teacher even tho the teacher was unable to read it themselves.

I agree Syd ....although my kids were lucky with their schools

Having seen this, I’m grateful that my school stuck to tradition teaching methods

It was here....spelling,reading and writing homework...attention to grammar and punctuation...marked down and given extra work if they didn't do it properly
