Why? Because the ones we have read about so far are so petty as to be almost fiction-like. The “offences” which the teachers are “guilty” of - or at least the ones we have read about so far - are minor and trivial yet these poor teachers have been dismissed and had their careers ruined. Please keep publishing such articles. This will then show all teachers the true face of the GTC. Punitive, draconian, petty-minded and certainly not so far working with the best interests of teachers at heart.
