Money could be better spent
I’ve just seen an advertisement in your paper for a litter picker at Ratton School – 25 hours per week at £8.55 per hour.
This must be the craziest thing yet – paying someone to pick up after students who should know better. I live in the catchment area of Willingdon School and walk my dog daily around the area.

The money would be better spent educating these students to appreciate that not everyone wants to see their disposed litter defacing the area.
