Too uncool for school

IT HAs been decided that children shouldn’t go to school if the temperature is too high, or if it snows.

yet many teachers of my acquaintance go on winter skiing holidays and will soon be off to southern climes for the guaranteed sunshine. How do they think countries with fierce winters or long, hot summers manage?

JOHN DIXON, Sleaford, Lincs. IT Is unfair of Amanda Platell (mail) to describe children as ‘snowflakes’ for missing PE lessons. school heads and teachers have to decide whether these are advisable if temperatures reach record levels.
