This hilarious video (scroll down) from sketch comedy troupe WKUK, shows how teachers probably come up with the rules that all students have to go by, whether they’re fair or not and whether they make sense or not.

The sketch starts with the leader of the meeting (presumably the head mistress) stating that their job is babysitting, whilst another teacher decides that starting school at 8am will really p*ss off the kids so they agree to do that. They choose the subjects the children should be learning, even though no one really takes gym seriously as a subject. A geography and his teacher argue over who’s subject is more important so it’s decided to combine the two and call them ‘social studies’.

A teacher comes up with the idea of detention and a school report, as another way to p*ss off the kids and they all agree. The teachers come up with a grading system that they realise doesn’t make any sense, but they go along with it anyway. The final rule is ‘none of us will ever admit when we’re wrong’.
