His entire attention in class is devoted to entertaining and distracting others and ensuring that no work can be done. He is not satisfied unless he is the centre of attention. His exam was better than might have been expected. This was mainly because he has an ability to express himself on paper; an ability which could place him in a higher form if he worked.

Thanks for raking this one up for my recent birthday Mum. RI was never my favourite subject.

Brilliant, I had one not dissimilar for RE, went something like

Julian should try to be more tolerant of other peoples beliefs.

I hated my RE teacher!

You should frame yours, /forums/images/icons/smile.gif

Hee hee!

Good job we weren't in the same class Jules. Here's another report from my history teacher March 68.

Sparkling with wit, unconcerned about manners, he has worked on the whole quite well

That has to be the nicest way a teacher has ever put, I think he is an ****** and I wish he had taken geography instead.

As we are going off R.I. my favourite is from a Mr Welles-Furby who, in 1960 said,
"Plays cricket with vigour but little skill"
My kids got a real kick out of reading my old reports. Should we save all their's ?

I'll get to the geography report in due time!

Here's a boaty offering from my housemaster, spring 69

<blockquote><font size=1>Quote from previous post:</font><hr>

He has on the whole had a very satisfactory term, but he has found it harder now that the novelties of the first term are over. With his ebullient nature he will always need to make a determined effort to channel his entusiasms in the right direction; there have been one or two occasions this term when he has seemed to be veering off course, and his self-steering gear is not yet reliable

Definitely. I remember the brown envelope arriving and being torn between hiding them and facing the music early. Mum (being a teacher herself) was quite forgiving provided she had a laugh, but I never knew the contents and fretted constantly. I think the reports say a lot for my teachers.

You must keep them - one day they will be priceless for your children. Mum waited until my 50th. I'm still weeping with laughter at one or two I'll only post posthumously/forums/images/icons/smile.gif

This reads rather like, 'he thinks he is the class clown'. Not you but me, of course. I was a lot funnier than that bastard anyway. 'Get out your 'Lord of the Flies'' indeed.

Funniest time I remember was after the showed 'The Great Escape'. Tom, Dick and Harry and Steve MacQueen doing a JJ on his bike. We were gripped, and shortly afterwards serious tunnels started to appear all over the place. We strolled over the parade ground scattering sand from our pockets as we lived out the escape.

They then showed 'The Longest Day' and the tunnelling sort of petered out. In the end, none of us escaped.

I can claim one of the best School Report put downs ever...

From my (then) English Teacher.

"The perfect gentleman, charming but idle"

Kept my family amused for years and still gets quoted 40 years later.

I'm very proud of this one, from a ship's captain:

"Has performed entirely to his own satisfaction."

History in 3rd. form Grammer school in Workington, 1955.

"prefers to regard himself as a gifted amateur."

and lower sixth biology.

"I have not known anyone spend so long learning so little."

my dad was not amused.

Then I went into teaching and spent hours trying to think up subtle reports ! Had a few sent back !

I can't remember who wrote it about whom, but I have always liked:-
"The dawn of legibility has revealed total illiteracy."

I had possibly one of the shortest school reports ever - my long suffering woodwork teacher simply wrote "Woodbutcher"

Help needed...

Can't quite make out a couple of words:

Mark has completed a year of relative xxxxxx, but at least he has done it xxxxx and sociably, for which I am extremely grateful.

 

[Evadne]

Re: Help needed...

I think the second word is "cheerfully", are you sure it isn't written by a doctor, given the legibility?

 

[jimi]

Re: Help needed...

Think the first word is "catonia"
