It really does boggle the mind what a sheltered existence people live these day's, that the slaughter of a lamb has cost a head teacher his job....
People really do need to withdraw their heads from their rectums and return to reality.  |
This has much to do with the treatment of children's feelings as it does with the wishes of parents. It appears that of the many of parents didn't want this to happen and neither did many of the children, but the head teacher decided to ignore this and go ahead and slaughter the animal. It has been her decision to resign and it is the parents privilege to disagree with how the school is managed.

Now if it was because the school was failing or the children were failing to learn to read etc I could accept a resignation/dismissal but this? Ridiculous!  |
She did not "lose" her job; she resigned.
