It's not a good advert for the school to say that they can finally teach kids properly: https://coventryobserver.co.uk/news/staff-and-pupils-at-coventrys-cardinal-wiseman-celebrating-after-ofsted-transformation-from-requires-improvement-to-good/

That used to be a damned good school.

Sadly, we have failed our children with these lockdown restrictions and scares. It's going to take a long time to recover from recent events. I really fear for those leaving school over the next couple of years, they are simply not going to be prepared for what lies ahead.

I've never had any faith in the education system. Apart from a few teachers who actually seemed to care about their job, most seemed to see their vocation as a babysitting service.

Most of my teachers were ex WW2 military officers. If they were typical of what we had during the war, we 'won' not because of them, but despite them! I only ever rated one of my teachers and he'd not only spent time in industry but was also interested in his pupils. The rest, I look back on with total disdain and many of them would never be allowed within a hundred miles of children these days. - A few would likely be in prison for their behaviour!
