Oh my!  How closed minded can a ministry be?  This is ridiculous!  I won't
even try to ask if anything can be done about this.  Why in the world should
the ministry decide what direction someone's professional development path
should take?  I wonder if this is something that was decided on by silly
bureaucrats or by some sort of inspectorate.  I can't believe that anyone in
the inspectorate (not necessarily English) who has worked as an educator
could possibly decide such a thing.  Or am I being naive?
