Proposal to allow all teachers a free supply of chocolate when teaching at Broad Heath School
The purpose of this report is to discuss a proposal which has recently been made by the year 3, 4, 5 and 6 teachers to the Head Teacher of Broad Heath School, requesting that free supplies of chocolate be made readily available to all teaching staff when teaching. All teaching and support staff are in absolute agreement that this would bring many positive benefits to the school, and we will describe these benefits here.
Firstly, we are completely convinced that a free supply of chocolate would increase the number of happy faces both around the staff room and throughout school. At least 90% of teaching staff enjoy eating a variety of chocolate on a regular basis. If they were to be given this free, not only would it save them money but it would also save them going out to the shop to buy the aforementioned chocolate. These two reasons, added with the delight that teacher would have when actually eating the chocolate, would most definitely make teachers happier and more relaxed.
Secondly, we passionately believe that the quality of teaching would greatly improve if teachers were to be given a regular supply to Cadburys, Nestle and other assorted chocolate goodies. Teachers would actually increase the happy chemicals in their brain as a result of eating the delicious chocolate, and therefore would be more relaxed and ready to teach their classes. When they are sat struggling over a huge pile of books to mark, a mouthful of chocolate would wake them up and get their brains and pens working again! What parent wouldn’t want their children being taught by happy, chocolate-fuelled teachers?
Finally, we are all in agreement that the pupils Broad Heath School would benefit from their teachers receiving these free supplies of chocolate. Not only would they receive a better standard of teaching from happier staff, but they would most certainly receive less telling off! Teachers would be so happy from eating their free chocolate, that they would never have any reasons to shout at their pupils. In fact, even when the teachers have real reason to get upset with their class, they could simply reach into their draw and gobble down whatever delicious snack was nearby, which would most definitely make them feel better!
The staff at Broad Heath School ask you to seriously consider their proposal. We truly believe that a free and endless supply of chocolate would lead to happier staff, happier pupils and an all-round happier school. Surely no one can deny that an increase in chocolate within school grounds would be a wonderful thing?
