Same thing happened in Lompoc, CA a while back. They misspelled “SLOW” there too.
How did I know this was in Britain before I even read the story?
Too shcool for cool.
That was the artist’s signature.
It’s “reading, 'riting, and 'rithmetic” not “reading, painting, and 'rithmetic”!
Maybe it provides a valuable lesson for the kids.
Not a spelling lesson, necessarily . . . but something.
Note that the word underneath SHCOOL should be YSGOL, but it looks like YSOOL, but that is not this set of contractors’ fault.
EDIT: I note that’s been pointed out by pesco in the original article. That’ll teach me for not reading the whole thing
Great googaly moogaly!
They got disoriented trying to figure out how to pronounce “Llangyfelach”
At least it was outside a school.
I googled it just in case there was a secret meaning, nope.

Because school is ‘shcool’…?
