Just when you think it can't possibly get any madder, from the BBC:
Special advisers are providing a vital link between parents and schools, the Training and Development Agency says. The agency says parent support advisers or PSAs offer help from running settling-in sessions and workshops to accompanying parents to meetings.
The TDA is overseeing the introduction of PSAs across England, following a pilot scheme in 20 local authorities. The TDA says there are currently 2,254 advisers working to support parents and their children in 7,608 schools.
In a separate poll of more than 1,000 parents the TDA found 42% would not know whom to contact if concerned about their child. The survey found 53% of parents wanted more interaction with schools and 54% wanted a dedicated point of contact.
Didn't we use to have 'class teachers' or something as a 'point of contact'?

"In a separate poll of more than 1,000 parents the TDA found 42% would not know whom to contact if concerned about their child. "Labour's educational triumph in a nutshell - 'parents' so dim that they can't figure out the chain of command in a school, or a school system so complex and Byzantine, even adults can't penetrate the maze.
Your call....
Underlying warmin' trend spotted.

Maybe they can stop lying too about global temperatures?
"Data from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) shows global average temperatures have risen by about 0.7C since the beginning of the 20th Century."Ooh, I'm really scared now!
I absolutely dare any of you to ask Mrs Lola - a state employed teacher - about some of this stuff. If you do, duck.
