Teaching at schools—the big problems

Hi guys,
Just thinking about your biggest bugbears with regard to teaching at school. You ever feel that you aren't being supported enough? Or not challenged enough? Obviously this would be very school-dependant but was curious to see what others thought. I saw somewhere that some public/private schools go beyond the syllabus in small tutorials which apparently helps in developing thinking skills (than simply teaching to the test). Was wondering if people would go for this if it was available to everyone? Or you'd just be ok with getting good results at GCSE?

As a public school student, I am predicted 7's but if it meant i could get 8's and 9's I defo would go for it. Sadly, it probably wont happen and if it does, i will be long gone into college/ uni

So you are saying that you are more worried about the exam results regardless of how you've been taught?

Cool. So if there's an online tool that teaches you tailored lessons to suit your ability, would you pay to use it? Say something that covers the curriculum but doesn't cut down on the rigour? Like a uni-style tutorial?
