There's a TA in my son's class who I find to be extremely rude, I'm thinking about making a complaint about her but not sure if I'd be wasting my time and energy?
She's only been at the school for around 6-8 weeks but already I've been 'told off' by her twice and I feel it was totally uncalled for and I'm not happy about my son seeing someone speak to his mother with such little respect.
The first occasion I got 'told off' was because my son (4) had sweets in his pocket and told the teachers that I had given them to him that morning. The truth was that he had been to his DSD's the day before who had let him take some sweets home, they went in his coat pocket and I didn't know anything about them. She made such a song and dance over it and when I told her why they were in his pocket she questioned me as though I was lying.
Yesterday I was 5 mins late picking him up, it is the first time I have EVER been late, it only happened because there was a fire and there were roads closed off which delayed me.
Well OMG she was sooo rude, I got "you do know its 10 past they finish don't you?!!!" well the official finish time is quarter past but they open the doors at 10 past because some parents have to collect other kids from the other side of the school.
She gave me such a filthy look and even after I explained about the fire she still went on to a rant about punctuality.
The thing that's annoyed me the most is the fact that she's spoke to me disrespectfully in front of my son, I wouldn't let my husband speak to me like that and I would never speak to anybody like that.
The school is such a happy place, all the other teaching staff I friendly, happy and kind to all the kids and parents, I really don't think she fits in with the school at all. I don't like the way she is with the kids either, she's a lot more negative than all the other staff.
I've asked to speak to the actual teacher tomorrow about several things, is it worth me complaining about the TA? Or is it just going to end up causing more tension?
