UK: Educational Embarrassment
30th November 2010
A red-faced headteacher has apologised after a school report containing 14 spelling mistakes and grammatical errors was sent to a parent by a form tutor. Plain English campaigners slammed the error-laden email and said the teacher should be sent back to school herself. The school report errors are revealed just days after the government’s education secretary Michael Gove called for teachers to crackdown on poor spelling and grammar.
Apparently British teachers aren’t any better than American ones.
