"Firstly, schools don't give out lists of teachers who give grinds - after all it would be akin to admitting that their teachers are not providing the service that they are paid for.."

Excuse me!!! That comment certainly does not seem to be written "in fairness"

Teachers are paid to teach - among other things.

Students often get grinds to improve their grades. They may be of a particular standard but get grinds to up that standard - perhaps because they can't keep up with the some of the other students of a higher standard.

If all students were of the same standard, then why aren't all exam results from the same class exactly the same? Perhaps it's because some students don't have the same aptitude as others and need that bit of extra assistance.

And no, I'm not a teacher.
