My dd Y7 came home today and said she had been in trouble - the German teacher held her back after class and said she would get a uniform "de-merit" (4= a detention) for rolling her skirt up......

SHE WEARS TROUSERS

she pointed this out

  • teacher said "oh, sorry I was sure it was you!"....


after being seriously affronted that she dared etc etc.. for about 20 min, it then just tickled me and we can't stop giggling about it.... and making up new scenarios - we wondered if tomorrow she would get an "incorrectly presented tie de-merit" when they are still in summer kit (polo + no tie)

hey-ho...

When Teachers have given unfair comments I always say "proves they are human like the rest of us!"

Well, my DD1 was accused of swearing in PE (using the F-word) and got written up, she hadn't done it and spoke to the teacher about it (there were witnesses). Teacher admitted she mis-heard and had had previous stressful session, and it all got sorted.

Impressed with the teacher for admitting they got it wrong.

I had a complete maths meltdown in front of my class yesterday (don't ask).

We all had a big giggle, wiped it off and they told me how to do it properly....(and moved me down the zone board)...
