Definitely not full time! What about doing the normal school curriculum?

Message to the BBC if you haven't noticed he has already won so no real need to find ways of making him look even more popular.
Meeting a few children, showing his human side. Isn't this the sort of stuff that politicians do? Next week will we see him donating to various charities? |

Other contestants have been to visit their old schools. Are you attacking them, too?
Oh is this the week for contestant's children to appear ? Jay being a non-daddy has hijacked a whole school instead , very clever tactic there . Nope , no attack in there . Look , if jay (and Strictly) chooses cynical measures like batting his baby blues, looking pretendy shocked at compliments, having the cameras on his mum in the audience every week and hi-jacking whole schools of children then I see nothing wrong in expressing that some of us can see through it and can react in similar cynical manner . He's 25 years old for goodness sake ! He didn't just leave that school last year , OR the year before , nor even 5 years ago .Nor has he ever taught there . In fact he claims he was bullied at school for his interest in ballet . It's weird and a cynical use of children who have nothing to do with him in any way . Sorry , but I'm just not gullible enough to fall for it . |

We have often seen people in their kids school/a random nearby school - I'm sure we've seen some in their old school. It's not a big deal. I assume TPTB like school VTs for the family show aspect.

"Unfortunately for the young Jay he was bullied by his classmates for expressing an interest in ballet!" I'm sure it will be a warm and fluffy vt though , as these things always are . |

An interview which so far no-one's actually provided a link to each time it's been mentioned.

Well, it was a tongue-in-cheek comment about how that has been referred to a lot recently. I don't doubt its existence though.

Very odd in his case considering this quote from his bio on the Strictly site .

At least two people have said on this forum they've tried a Google search for this interview and turned up nothing so yes, I do doubt very much it exists and that it is, in fact, hearsay based on little evidence at all myself.

On that basis, the 'classmates' referred to would have been classmates at the CHSDN. If the bullies were actually Jay's classmates at All Saints then the previous interpretation of the bio looks quite wrong. Also, quite a few years down the line, this is a good opportunity for the school to consider better ways of dealing with that kind of bullying. It's also an opportunity to show that bullies don't always win. Quote:

Despite the fact that I read Little Women at an impressionable age, I've never donated my hair to a charity - simply because I didn't realise that it was even a possibility. Many others will be in the same boat. However, now that I know that donation is a possibility, I will look into the possibilities. I doubt very much that I will be unique in doing so. That means that there are charities which may benefit from Jay publicising the issue. No matter how you feel about him, or his dancing on the show, or his 'dance background', surely that's a positive? |

Sorry , but I'm just not gullible enough to fall for it . Sorry, this is nothing new!! Many past celebs have re-visited their old school, why is it so taboo that Jay has ![]() I seem to recall Natalie visited her old primary school when she was doing Strictly, it's for the damn awful VTs they show us! |

Filming at a school is done for many contestants. A previous school for those without children, or the childs school if the celebrity has school age children.
Remember SCD is a "family" show and as such must be seen to appeal to children. |

Jeremy has already done it this season!!!!! Not one comment about cynical use of children. I bet Peter wouldn't have got away with that (and I'm not a fan of his at all)

I really can't see what all the viciousness is about every year they go to the younger competitors schools and for the older competitors they go to their children's schools. So why pick on Jay when it happens every year. The only reason I can see is they are jealous.

![]() We can also recognise bitter, jealous individuals who can't bear the fact that he stole last weeks show, and I am sure will continue to do so.
