General   (General discussion, talk about anything.)

I read somewhere that a lot of "so called" teachers after WW2 hadn't actually got any academic qualifications, there being a shortage, many were from the armed services background. I know this to be the case in one instance, he was a woodwork teacher, in WW2, his job was writing down Morse code transmissions.

Maybe it's gone full circle, we had some gruesome teachers and we want to protect our own from vile teachers as they were.
