British education....." Be like WAGS"

Postby Norse on Wed Oct 24, 2007 1:26 pm

Yes that is right.

The new message being spewed out to young ladies in Britain by educational leaders...." be like WAGS" (Wives and girlfriends of sports stars)

A multi-million pound project by the "learning skills council" has decided to use this as their gimmick.

Obviously targeting young ladies, this message high-lights the LSC's backward and degrading opinions of where it would like to channel our young ladies....down the path of obnoxious, self-obsessed, gold-digging, ingracious little sluts, that have not a brain in their skull.

I worry for our youth, the system is letting them down.

I kinda feel a bit sorry for most teachers who have to put up with these ridiculous mantra's. As much as I disagree with what the average teacher would have to say, I'm certain that the great majority just want to get on and teach, and excell in what they do....this kind of stuff must be a slap in the face.

It basically said that WAGS are role-models because most of them actually have a decent education.

Ahh. Does now.

Seems OK really. Perhaps a bit of a silly idea, but the fundamentals are fine.

Michael Carrick's wife, Lisa Roughead, has a university degree and two others, Michaela Henderson-Thynne, the former girlfriend of Stewart Downing, and Gary Neville's wife, Emma Hadfield, are also studying for an undergraduate degree.

Coleen McLoughlin, fiancée of striker Wayne Rooney, has 10 GCSEs including an A* in performing arts. And three of the 12 have vocational qualifications equivalent to five upper-grade GCSE passes.


Its not exactly making academia cool, but if these women are what certain students look up to then whats the harm in emphasising that they performed well academically?

When I was in primary school Gary Lineker visited to talk to us about the importance of reading, or something. Its just that

In Croatia we call that type of women sponzoruše. That term can be translated as a woman who needs a sponsor to pay her clothes, shoes, lunch, and so on... They are mostly ex-models or wannabe-models.
Models and pro football players are a match made in heaven. Together they have IQ equivalent of the shoe size . :roll:

Gary linekar is not exactly similiar to your average wag, though is he?

I mean, you wouldn't have, say, wayne rooney coming in to give an advanced physics lesson, would you? or Mike tyson coming in to help promote safe sex?

I think that this whole motto is implying that this is what your average teenage girl should be aiming towards. My feminine side is offended by this. I feel objectified, and sexualised, and raped of my feminine youth...and it's all the education ministers' faults!
