Dad tried teaching secondary scienceRound the same time I was starting secondary school. Never seen him so stressed, it was a bloody awful time for the family.
Tales include comforting a woman teacher who'd had a 15 year old put his hand up her skirt (management response-try wearing different clothes!), someone trying to set his beard on fire and numerous assaults. He spent most of the 70's in Norn Iron in the Royal Engineers, and reckoned that was far less stressful.
Also, it is now part of the requirements of an apprenticeship that you do key skills in maths, english and IT, because most kids can't read or add up.
