Britain's schools minister fails spelling test

Examples of his poor spelling include "maintainence" for "maintenance," "acheiving" for "achieving" and "archeaological" for "archaeological," as well as the more obviously lazy "foce" for "force" and "convicned" for "convinced."
The Sun mocked up a picture of the minister in a D for dunce's cap, calling him the "minister for educashun."
"When I was at school, the teachers always told me to check my work," he told the paper, adding: "While my spelling is generally pretty good, I need to focus more on checking."
