LONDON (Reuters) - The word "fail" should be banned from use in British classrooms and replaced with the phrase "deferred success" to avoid demoralizing pupils, a group of teachers has proposed.

It would be funnier if they failed to :P
Wow, just wow...
These stupid things happen all the time.
Fricken hilarious ;D!
Reminds me of the local districts "failed" :P attempt of banning red pens for corrections because it makes students loose their will to strive and do good, due to the "trama" of seeing red marks on tests and such.
