Some time last year we were told that we are not allowed to "Brainstorm" with our classes at school as it was offensive to epileptics, FFS.

We could however "Thought Shower". :banghead:

Apparently this has now been overruled and "Brainstorm" is once again acceptable.

I kid you not, this is true. :yes:

"Use your head - teach" yeah right!

Wifey's just abandoned well paid consultancy job to do her PGCE at York to teach Maths and has started babbling on about all the PC phrases/rules/restrictions etc..

I have the greatest sympathy for a lot of teachers.

Thought Shower, I'll try that one at work and see if anyone knows WTF it means.

He's not getting any of mine - I may need it. Nerv's pretty slack though so he might have some to spare
