Our teachers were, in retrospect, embarrassingly overqualified.
The stagnation of the 70s and 80s meant that there were fuck all other pensionable jobs around for smart lads and lassies.
I think there was still a sense that if you were a smart girl, your options were in the caring professions.
But the upshot was our English teacher had a Phd and our Art teacher came with a masters in fine arts.
