angels 15, are you suggesting that an MCCI at FTE may not practice what he preaches? I don't think I need to ask who!
For the record, the two MCCIs who were made redundant were NOT given the opportunity to stay (one ex-Pik, one locally employed). A third MCCI went down to part time contract - leaving just the manager on a full time contract. 1 manager, half an instructor - classic BAE-style staffing ratio.
Nice timing, too, at 2 weeks before Christmas.
