Hi,
I'm hoping for some suggestions about what to do in this situation, which will hopefully stop me going off in the deep end, which is pretty much what I feel like doing right now.
Just had a conversation with a parent who said that one of their children's best friends is transferring schools at the end of the year because of bullying which was not limited to but certainly contained racist elements.
The child who is leaving is in my DS's class, in year 2. They are amicable but he's not in her group of close friends. The child whose parent I spoke with is a good friend of my DS, and I know the parent well so I believe what he told me.
So my question is, what can I do? What does it make sense to do?
I'm frankly horrified at the moment having only heard this a few minutes ago. I will try and quietly speak with the child's parents in the playground, just to say how sorry I am that they've had to come to this decision , of course.
Would it make sense to speak to the teacher (they're all in the same class)? It isn't my child that's been bullied but I don't want him in an environment where this has happened and I'd like some reassurances that it was dealt with appropriately.
What else? Letter to the governors? As far as I understand the child who has been bullied is definitely going and so there's no chance of making it any worse than it is which is what would hold me back, if anything could.
Has this ever happened near you and what did you do?
