Should incompetent teachers be struck-off?
Graham Stewart takes your calls ahead of the first case in Scotland of a teacher who faces being stuck off. Plus, are we doing enough to promote rail?
In the first case of its kind in Scotland, the General Teaching Council will today decide whether a primary school teacher should be struck off for incompetence. Is that too harsh? Or is this the tough action we need to give our kids the education they deserve?
Plus: Should we raise the cost of motoring to fund public transport?
As petrol prices fall, train fares are going up: have we got it the wrong way round? The Government have been spending years trying to get us out of our cars, and on to public transport. And the high cost of driving has started to change people's travel habits. So, for the good of the country and the good of the planet, shouldn't we be raising the cost of motoring and subsidising rail?
Graham Stewart takes your calls, texts and emails.
