Mobile scheme is simply idiotic
18/ 4/2008
REGARDING the use of smart mobile phones at South Trafford College, I truly don’t know how to start this letter, I’m so angry.
What idiot decided to use taxpayers money on these devices, because one thing is for sure – it’s all for the sake of ‘grades’.
There’s a muscle inside the skull that’s called a brain, to be used as nature intended and not artificially stimulate students who perhaps otherwise wouldn’t make it.
I resent my hard-earned money being used on such a scheme, especially as I had the misfortune to be educated during the war and had to leave school at 14, after enduring endless sleepless nights being bombed to blazes.
We barely had an education, but I still managed to hold down decent jobs, becoming a company secretary. In other words, if you’re capable you don’t need ‘devices’.
