My son has been late for school 5 times this week. He is 14 years old and a pain up the backside. His school cannot get their act together to organise detentions. His detention for Monday's late is next week. I feel that a detention should ideally be in the same day or failing that the next day. There are so many naughty children there is insufficient capacity in the dining room.
I feel that the school should set up an over flow detention room to endure that punishments happen within 24 hours of the misdeed. Maybe there would be no need for two detentions rooms if punishments happened faster.
I am angry that the school are refusing to arrange a face to face meeting with be to discuss Ds refusal to go to registration before Christmas. Ds prefers the detentions to being bullied. I want alternative arrangements to be made for him to register if he is too scared to go to form time.
Am I unreasonable to make formal complaint? At dd's primary they would be organising the meeting. Dd's headteacher is very hot on attendence issues.
