Haha I'm a control freak and perfectionist. I want the best possible education for my students and as both owner and one of the teachers I manage to do that. Teaching is difficult at the best of times without idiot owners whose priority is money getting in the way.
Maastricht... Very different to spain...

Yes no educational governers whose priorities are other than education but feel they know all about education hold so many schools back the CTC I worked in had industrial governers who knew nothing about good education they lied about standards and used the places as a political tool......
Maastricht is wonderful ....it's the home of Andre Rieu who does a lot of videos in which you can see how nice it is.

Muggins is incorrect. It doesn't have the same meaning. It means someone easily fooled - not a fool.
