Taxpayer-Funded Surfing Lessons
Bournemouth and Poole College Initiate Controversial Course
Taxpayer-Funded Surfing Lessons - Bournemouth and Poole College Initiate Controversial Course (GALLERY) 2

Now there’s really no excuse not to go pro surfing if you live in the UK: A two-year taxpayer-funded surfing course will teach students how to surf, and is targeting beginners.

The course is currently being offered by Bournemouth and Poole College.

Over the two-year period, students will commit two days a week, and they must continue surfing throughout winter. Those who complete the course will receive a BTEC national certificate in sport (outdoor activities).

"This sort of thing has no place in a college of further or higher education - it is just cashing in by getting bums on seats," chairman of the Campaign for Real Education told the Daily Mail newspaper on Thursday. (sbs.au)
