 🐟📚Because what every modern student truly needs—after algebra, anxiety, and avocado toast—is a qualification in catching slippery things. Yes, the UK is casting its nets wide with a new plan to teach fishing in schools, awarding angling certificates that count as GCSEs, BTECs, or even A-level equivalents. Finally, a subject where bunking off could technically count as fieldwork.

🧢 Reeling in the Future—or Just Floundering Around?

Let’s get this straight: we’ve got crumbling classrooms, overworked teachers, and rivers that now double as biohazard zones—and the answer is… fishing lessons? 🎓🐠

Apparently, this is all about teaching “transferable skills” like patience, discipline, and teamwork. But let’s be honest—so does waiting three hours for the bus that never shows up.

Imagine the scene: Year 10 students, wading into a murky river filled with more microplastics than minnows, learning “environmental awareness” while dodging floating crisp packets and sewage foam. 🦠💩

If we’re serious about teaching kids life skills, maybe start with how to stop the rivers from glowing at night. Because right now, the only thing biting is the pollution.

But hey, at least when the economy tanks, there’ll be a generation ready to literally fish for their supper. Sustainable living, right? 🐡🎣
