School ProjectsMostlySunny wibbles, "When I was 11 I got an A for my study of shark nets - mostly because I handed it in cut out in the shape of a shark."
Do people do projects that don't involve google-cut-paste any more? What fine tat have you glued together for teacher?

Hang on.Your dad - a technology teacher - co-made your project with you, a GCSE project that is supposed to test the ability of schoolchildren rather than their parents - and you are aggrieved because you got a D? A D seems perfectly reasonable if you didn't do all the work yourself.

Truebut the point is, the teacher in question didn't know I hadn't done it myself, he'd simply given me a low mark because he didn't really give a shit about the work and didn't like me.
As I say, neither my dad or I would have done it on anything which actually contributed to final grades.
Think of it more as an experiment...

I see your point,and yet feel righteously aggrieved for all the people with uneducated kack-handed dads, like mine. Actually "bitter" is a better word than "aggrieved".

He was good at technologybut not much help on some other things. He offered to help me practice my French once.
'Can you speak French, dad?'
'No, but speak at me son, and I'll just say yes or no back...'
