Yet more WTF?!?!

[Mister James]

Some of the stuff going on in our schools really does shock me!

[zaknafien]

It's really getting beyoned a joke now but far too many aren't prepared to stand up and say enough of this bollocks.

I'm waiting for the day one of my kid's comes home after having their lunch boxes checked, I think after the last time I was at the school they won't be too happy to see me.

Ive been visiting a few schools recently doing legionella surveys on their cold and hot water systems, which involves crawling round in 50 year old tank rooms that are full of dust and fibreglass and are invariably hot, i had just climbed down from a plant room and was a bit thirsty coz of all the dust, i went over to the can machine to get a drink of pop, i asked permission first just to be polite, i was refused to be allowed to buy a drink because of the healthy eating drive that is going on schools all the kids arent allowed to buy drinks from the machine i wasnt allowed to because it would seta bad example, ill get to the point my experience of schools recently has been that they need to get their heads from up their arses and start letting people make decisions for themselves including the adults that work there.

im rambling now but in another school i had to access a tank room in a roof void above a teachers desk in an office the complaints i recieved from the member of staff because she had to move were just silly. I explained what i was doing but she seemed to care more about the work she was doing than whether the children in her care would be at risk from legionnaires disease, Gillian Beckingham any one, anyhow i left the tanks and wrote in my report that a member of staff refused me access to a tank which could be a severe risk to the children at the school. i could go on ive had about three weeks of being talked to like a school child and im peed off sorry for the rant.

I remember that my brother's primary school banned children from bringing and eating crisps for lunch in their lunch boxes because "the crisps make a mess"

Very stupid indeed.

I recently read about one school where this is happening, where some of the parents take it in turn to buy a shit load of fish and chips and pass them out to the kids through the bars surrounding the school!

Good on em!

Yea, let kids eat what the advertisers want to sell them they want to eat. I mean freedom of expression how dare they prevent indivduals from choosing what they eat, after all it's an indivduals /right/ to weigh treble what everyone else does!

Or so says his parents...

I don't actually think this is a good way of making people 'healthy'. However all the good ways I can think of involve parents having some discipline with their kids and not feeding them 'bad for you' snacks all the time.
Ok, it's not a problem for all, but it is an ever-increasing problem in the UK.

I'd have to agree with G on this one. When health eating is not taken seriously by parents it will inevitably put into the hands of politicians, a very bad scenario indeed.

I ate a bar of chocolate and a packet of crisps every day of my school life.
