Maths Teacher and Countdown Addict
Teaching Capacity
Signed MSW on his intra-school documents, Mark Wilbraham is a mathematician holding a BSc Hons. with Qualified Teacher Status Degree from Leeds University
Countdown
Mr Wilbraham appeared on the television show Countdown on Thursday 6th February, 1997, during its (19524)34th season, and attained a score of 45 points. He was unfortunately defeated by his opponent and did not appear on the show a second time. Unsurprisingly, he did not find the number rounds problematic, but does note that the sound of the musical clock is rather distracting.
Password
He also holds the honour of having the school intranet password sharing his name.. and no, I'm not giving away any secrets there because: a) who knows the username and b) who cares??!
Quotes
- "Consonant please, Carol."
- "And that plus makes more plus."
- "Everyone got it wrong, except those who didn't."
- "You do make some stupid mistakes!"
Wilbers: "You alright Steph?" Steph: "Yeah, are you?"
- To a YEAR 10 class "Can anyone tell me the name of the line around the circle?", after many whispers of 'does he really want us to answer that?' from the class, someone told him it was a circumference...
- (in silence, aimlessly wandering around the classroom) to self: "ooh i can smell beef crisps"
- (also in silence, whilst staring at the wall): "Where were you at lunchtime?"
Repeat 3 or 4 times, each time louder and more irate than the last. ((Okay, so the wall turned out to be a window and there was someone on the other side of it, but it was very funny from the corner of the classroom I was in.))
- "So why is a cone not a sphere?"
