Evening, was hoping to gather a few opinions on this....
Have somehow ended up as treasurer of our PTA and am getting even more disheartened with the school. I should say now that we are really struggling to get members for the pta and probably operate with 5 members, managing to rope a few more people for events.
We recently held school discos for the children and raised close to £800 for the school. Afterwards, rather than saying well done, but... The deputy head (who attended the next PTA meeting) launched into a rant about how teachers couldn't be expected to help at the disco and that teaching assistants who also had children at the school felt pressured into helping. She then said that teachers are not available to help at any future events.
My question basically is, how much do teachers in your school help with these events (discos, christmas and summer fairs etc)? And if you are a teacher, how much do you resent it?
Thanks
