Political correctness gone mad in Sheffield


As a teacher, can I make plain that I think the headteacher in this case is daft !
I guess local road signs will also need to be changed to "Place of Learning" too ?

It's just downright daft. "School" is a cultural shorthand for "place of learning".

Want to place a bet that the Headmistress

The Sun got it about right:

"Local mum Kimberley Dunne, 26, said: “A school is a school. Seriously.

“The word ‘school’ doesn’t have negative connotations, it’s just where you go. "

Even that phrase "place of learning" can be an exaggeration for some of the schools I know.
