    Though being critical about NAGRAT and CCT, I consider GNAT leaders as useless. Look at them misinterpreting this: "We live to teach, not teach to live".

    If you don't teach to live, why do you go on retirement? We cannot c ...

    "We live to teach, not teach to live" is a stupid motto. The motto should be changed to "We live to teach and we teach to live".

    We talk of graduate unemployment and NAGRAT thinks the government cannot do without them? They should continue to see where it will be with them. Some want, they don't get, some get they don't want.

    Gnat has foolish executives

  • PROF JNA 9 years ago

    GNAT is not serious. NAGRAT action is to the benefit if all teachers. GNAT is not really helping teachers. GNAT should come out to confirm that the issue or argument raised by NAGRAT is irrelevant.
