Paul, I think you got upset and jumped in prematurely. I think that it's
more likely that Peter was railing against the system, as he sees it, rather than the teachers. Teachers are the unfortunate meat in the sandwich.
Most thinking people, including Peter I would presume, are aware that many teachers are dedicated people who have to attempt to instil some
knowledge into sometimes recalcitrant and/or reluctant kids. Sometimes
a thankless task. I also think the system is broken, but this is not the
place to discuss it.
