PE LessonsFor some they may have been the highlight of the school week, but all we remember is a never-ending series of punishments involving inappropriate nudity and climbing up ropes until you wet yourself.
Tell us about your PE lessons and the psychotics who taught them.

True StoryHaven't posted a lot, but those that know me, know that I'm a primary head teacher.
Once while taking a PE lesson in my third primary school, a rather overweight Y6 girl was attempting to wind herself in and out of the wooden ladder on what the children used to laughingly refer to as "the apparatus" (never a truer word.....), when she froze.
Literally
All the coaxing in the world couldn't get her to relax. She was well and truly stuck, poor girl.
After half an hour we had to get the fire brigade in to cut her free. They sawed the ladder into bits to free her.
Did I get a bollixing from The Boss? You bet! Those ladders cost three hundred odd quid back in the eighties!!
Other than that I've had a relatively accident/trauma free life as a teacher of primary PE.
Apart from the two broken arms in less than a week in 1997, but that's another story.......

Classicwas it those blue ones that hinge out from the wall? The ones that all schools have but never use.
I must get a fat kid on those as soon as I can just to see if I can repeat the exercise.
Also. can I have a job, because my current contract runs out at Easter.

ContractDamn
I just shortlisted. Which was your application?
Sadly though, it was an old fashioned wooden ladder. The blue ones were metal, guaranteed to wreck shins, and turn bollix blue if you slipped when climbing.
Happy daze!
