my biggest grieviance is that pretty much every pupil in the UK goes through that bollocks of not wanting to look too smart it's not something exclusive to ethnic minorities.

As for paying them more. nice way to breed contempt for people. I want to go into teaching, why should someone get more than me because of the pgment of their skin? why not give me more cause I live in a scheme and went to a shitty school? or what about my mate with a heart defect that's bro died of the same thing? or what about someone that's really over weight and got hassle through school for it?

some people have cushy lives, and some don't. I'm not against trying to even things out but where do you draw the line?
