My comment was really in response to Firebird’s – should have been clearer about that

First off, sorry blog modded you, it has a mind of it’s own! Second, I agree and I don’t think it is wrong to say the words, I just can’t. And third, it was very much only part of the sentiment of the post, most of which was more on the lines of “we are not all the same”. I hope it didn’t come across as a argument at the other thing. It wasn’t. Fourth, I can’t imagine you doing something anonymously!!!!

So far as I read, it was a choice for people to take or leave. It was my choice to take it. I am not the sort of person who can acquiesce even when to do so would make my life easier.

I do not believe that asserting that you will not co-operate is a bad thing. Teachers have been saying for months that they would disobey Ed and not carry out sats tests – what happens, Ed has an about turn. Sometimes you have to draw that line in the sand very clearly, particularly when you have used reason and strong arguments, and they have been ignored.

I am not saying that this has to be everyones view, I am saying it is mine, and I am as entitled to voice it as are those who choose a different tactic.

And no, I didnt write it.
