Family seek £180k-a-year tutor from 'socially appropriate background' to prepare one-year-old son for ‘Eton or Harrow’ | LBC

The advert for the North London role also pinpoints a number of private schools the parents wish their 12-month-old boy to attend when of age

Thoughts on this? I guess a working class northerner probably wouldn’t be given this job?

      Probably beyond my hoodwinking skills. Also I’m not northern myself, I was just wondering what kind of person they would consider to have a “socially appropriate background”. Posh accent, wealthy family, and from South East England, I would expect.

    A 1 year old?

    I’d quite happily wing it for a few months until I got found out. 4 months and thats a few k over my annual salary.

    Remember, nobody can prove you weren’t a regional manager for ToysRus and the reason you can’t disclose who you tutored for previously is because you signed some pretty scary NDAs

      I was a manager at Woolworths back in the day, I swear… but this family would probably say my accent isn’t posh enough to tutor their child.
