students falling behind

Big news ..they are going bad..falling behind.
This is the fault of the teachers...
they could not care less in a lot of cases.
I learnt many many years ago and I remember the teachers all seemed to be keen to get us going.
Teachers today have no incentive to get the best out of the pupils.
Todays herald had a journo saying it is John Howards fault that pupils are falling behind.
BS.....total BS
