...Qualifications and Curriculum Authority?

If you're not up to speed:

Head of school exams watchdog resigns over SATs fiasco

"Mr Boston, 65, who has been in the post since 2002, came under pressure during the affair to justify his £328,000-a-year pay deal, which includes the use of a £1 million Chelsea flat and six business-class flights a year back to his home country of Australia."

Well, I live in Swindon, so I'll happily take six flights to somewhere exotic (business-class of course). Frankly, for that kind of package I'd mark the fking papers myself.

Oh how the other half live.

hehe

It amazes me that they get paid so much. Wouldn't be so bad if they did an amazing job.

For anyone in private industry it beggars belief - who on earth signs off these packages?

It's like the senior council staff who earn more than, say, the Prime Minister. Quite bizzare.
