'My school has a very strict detention policy.'

"And if you look to the right you'll see what happens if you disrupt my class."

"I can never remember whether children are to be seen and not heard or the other way around."

"I try to get a head start on them."

'You know, sometimes I find it pretty hard to imagine these will be the ‘good old days.''
