Biography

Mrs Sharp is an A-Level Computing "teacher", who occasionally participates in lower school maths lessons. For you guys who don't know Mrs Sharp, you'll find her down Waterfoot with her school CHUM Mrs Read romantically dining at lunch, frequently visiting Cordey's. She is best identified by her apparent lack of problem solving ability. When faced with a problem she will fall back into one of four pre-installed modes.

1) Consulting VisualBasic for dummies. 2) Deleting several lines of code and then saying "I'm just going to walk over..........." leaving before she finishes the sentence

3) Asking the most able member of the class she is teaching for help. 4) Saying "I'll let you have a little play with that."

However, she is still the best teacher to have at A level, for any subject. In the (5 person) A level computing class last year, there was an average of 3 members in attendance at any one point. This was made better by the flexible lesson timings, which involved 3 members (Phil Ed and Sam) walking in around 15 minutes late every lesson (Ed's record was 50 minutes late after taking an extremely fun lunchbreak at a friend's house [twice]) after having an extended lunch or break. Oh, and they always brought in food, with nothing but a smile eminating from Mrs Sharp (Although she did occasionally pester until someone gave her a piece of chewing gum). Ed still has a pair of her cable-crimpers, which he should really give back at some point.
