I said some are not the whole lot. In fact I think teachers have a bad rap - education is given very little attention in this country and a teacher is not well paid by any means. Compare their salaries and the good they are doing to someone big grunt who can kick a ball and barely elucidate a coherent sentence yet earns millions a year. Does that make sense?
