Badman in the TES on the Welsh Situation.

NB: he may be a prof of something or other, but as far as any of us are aware, there isn't such a thing as a professorship in home education and to most home educators I know, he is still far from an expert on the subject.

The comments are instructive.

At least people have stopped calling him "Sir Graham"

He might have to return to it after his prof tenureship is up though, since if it is this one, it only lasts 2 years.

I've a tiny bit of a bad conscience just now...about the ad hominems, I mean, but trouble is, the TES started it with the "expert" and the "prof" bits.

If anyone wants a proper refutation of Badman's arguments, they should read at least the first 2 comments.

a professorship is linked to a university, isn't it?

So no, you can't have an HE professor!

Oh, wait a minute, unless, as Home Edding parents, that makes us ALL HE Professors?!
