DS won an award 2 years ago and it has his name on the Twitter with a picture "congratulations to..." kind of thing.
Never once caused a problem.
His school has received phone calls of a man stating "his son X won't be in school for this this and this" and he is using my son's name. I can only imagine it's some kind of prank? It happened the first time and when DS turned up it was just shrugged off as a mistake, when it was the second time they got the person to clarify who his son is and described him.
This is when I realised it has to have come from the Twitter picture, surely?
They have taken the photo down but have called me in and said that it's a safeguarding issue? I don't see how it's a safeguarding issue. If they thought it was some twat who had seen the photo (they clearly do as they removed it) then why is it a safeguarding problem?
It doesn't make much sense and I'll be contacted today by safeguarding officer. I've not slept all night. Do you think they're suspicious about our family or something?
