"Sucessfull Clogs" doesn't quiet have the same ring to it

The PRofessional Association of Teachers (PRAT) has been told today that they should no longer call children "Clever" and replace it with the word "Sucessfull" to aviod a culture that "mocks clever." To my understanding this is a phased attempt to make every student "Average" with already students who are "failures" being called as having "deferred Sucess" after a vote at the PRATs conference last year. The Proposal by Simon Smith, who has had "deffered Sucess" in the past has said that accademic prowess is not 'cool.'

A spokesman for another bunch of prats...the government said "This is no the brightest idea we have heard...." before adding "....and believe me this government has heard a lot of them, we've come up with most of them, like ID cards, Police Mergers, PFIs, City Accademies....."

We have also learned that in an attempt to me school more about coolness, but about accademic prowess? maybe we will have Music replaced with Rap? English replaced with 'txt spk' aswell as changing many of the other subjects.

There is also plans to change the marking system so that it is now 100% - 0% = C, after all we can't have anyone being above or below average now can we?

Random Fact:

First-born children are less creative but more stable, while last-born are more promiscuous, says US research.
