    There are some students who 'get' what it means to succeed in a school environment. To be interested, to be engaged, to get on with others, to take the positives out of any task or situation, who say friendly things. They don't make up the bulk of the class who are generally just nice kids who are getting on with the business of having to turn up to school every day. There are some kids who don't 'get,' or can't cope with, what school is about. They get more attention basically in the same way that if a kid has asthma, you don't give him the inhaler and then pass it round the rest of the class because that is 'fair.' As a teacher I can like a student, but still be on their case for them to produce better work. My job is to get the most out of the 30 people in front of me, whether that's easy or not.
