I had some boys in detention tonight, one of them arrived really rather late because he'd got half way home before he remembered. It must have been very tempting to just carry on home, but he came back - which I thought was very good, especially as he had told me he had a detention with another teacher so could he do it tomorrow. I think we made a bit of progress, I like to think so anyway. Detentions are a strange thing, I often feel it is me being punished rather than the pupils. My sins include lateness, not doing homework, not doing homework to a reasonable standard, not bringing my books and probably, at some stage, talking too much and being very rude (but not yet this year).
