Quality

The quality of many incoming teachers is such that they conspire with an insider to cheat their way to a certification.

Federal prosecutors in Memphis are investigating an educator who they say ran a test cheating ring in three Southern states for teachers and prospective teachers who wanted to pass standardized certification exams.

According to court documents, Mr. Mumford, a former assistant principal and guidance counselor, helped create fake government identification for test takers, and collected fees ranging from $1,500 to $3,000 from individuals who were concerned about passing tests administered by the Educational Testing Service in Arkansas, Mississippi and Tennessee.

When incoming “teachers” require greasing the wheels just to get a job, it should be a sign that our educational system is not in need of yet more teachers. If the population needed more teachers, we wouldn’t have to be forced to accept education college fluffs who cheated their way in.
