'Creeping like snail unwilling to school' - Shakespeare

Treat people as if they were what they ought to be and you help them to become what they are capable of being.  -   Johann Wolfgang von Goethe  (1749 - 1832)

Saw this on a notice board in an Educate Together school, where I have begun teaching. One week down and impressed with what I've experienced. 

Classes begin in earnest on Monday; happy learning and good fortune to all who are going back to school on Monday and a special word to those, who are beginning in a new school and indeed, to the little ones who are going to school for the first time.

Good luck to all.
