Caitríona Ruanes Our Education System


Ruane Who would have thought that playing tennis as a kid and leading a campaign to bring three Paddys home from Columbia wouldn’t be good enough qualifications for a minister for education?  Not us, but our combined qualifications are three court summons for pissing in the street and a winning £1 scratch card.

So why is everybody who ever learned how to read giving Ruane so much grief?  Leaky McPisshimself from her department has leaked her 11-Plus proposals, so we can exclusively reveal the options she is considering...

  • Pupils will race each other in sack races and 3 legged races, the winner of which gets a place in the "smart school".
  • Pupils in P7 will sit a "question paper" where they will get "points" and "points mean places".  This in no way bares a resemblance to the 11-Plus and if it does it is entirely co-incidental.
  • Any kid that can piss higher than the urinal gets straight into big school.  Girls included.
  • New 11-Plus replacement will be the “elephant plus”.  It’s a new form of mathematics based on animals, kids love animals.  Anyone who can't multiply a giraffe by a zebra goes to Thickytown High.
  • Catholic maintained schools will administer their own test, which will go as follows:
    “Can you catch?  Can you kick?  Yes?  You’re in.”
  • The 11-Plus was too hard so it will be replaced with something a bit easier – GCSE’s.
  • This year the kids going to the best schools will be those that come up with the best ideas for next year’s 11-plus.  Anyone who does really well in the exam might even become minister for education.
  • Ulster Scots speaking schools will be the only ones receiving funding.
  • Schools will be taught a new syllabus, based completely around the life of Gerry Adams, including how he discovered the theory of relativity, how he was the first man on the moon, how he single-handedly invented democracy and how his favourite TV show is Bodger and Badger.
  • All schools will be abolished because they socially disadvantage, disenfranchise and discriminate against people who can’t be arsed going to school.
