I read with utter despair today at a child of 14 being put into isolation at his school because he had broken school rules by shaving his head in raising money for MacMillan Cancer Support. The head teacher has now revealed the isolation is 'under review'.
I gather the lad called Stan Lock has seen a surge in donations since the story broke and has now gone past the £4,000 mark.
In an age where it has become all to easy to berate the 'Youth of Today' here we have a teenager setting an outstanding example for a noble cause.
A number one haircut may breach school rules but what harm is it doing to society? None.
What harm has the lad done to society? None.
He has set about doing something to help those unfortunate enough to have cancer.
But oh no school rules and procedures must come first.
Bloody jobs worth head teacher.
Under review my arse.
The head teacher should get isolated for a few decades and I certainly would not be putting that under review for a good while.
Can't beat the jobs worth bureaucratic control freak culture it seems .
