Just to let people know that you can successfully leave the RAF and transition to teaching successfully.

I spent 22 years in service on C130 and VC10, and I have now spent a couple of years in the classroom.

Service style discipline helps, but you have to get to know the pupils and see what makes them tick. I am sure that my second career will be as enjoyable as my first one.
Service style discipline? You said you were in the RAF?

I think you were forced out by Ofsted due to your appalling English. I take it you taught PE.
Are you serious? An ex Crab teaching PE? I thought the idea that ex servicemen (and ex RAF) make good teachers, was that they draw on their previous experience? Clearly, an ex crab could therefore never teach PE!
