I so want this to be a terrible joke QE.

Me.... I'd be straight in there. Humiliation only teaches kids how to feel small and unworthy.

Talk to the teacher. No joy.... straight to the Head!

I remember having to do that. But that was in the olden days!

This really shouldn't be happening. Report it to the head, they're probably not aware of this one teachers stupid and cruel teaching techniques and be glad you informed them.

How old is your son? How is he?

She asked him to stand up and recite his 2x tables. He started saying 2,4,6,8 etc but she wanted him to say it 1x2=2, 2x2=4 etc.

It was a big black hat with a big "D" on it.

If this isnt a joke then you should have bypassed the teacher and gone straight to the head and board of governers.

No way.

If this is true, teacher must be very old (sorry to be age-ist)

Go straight to head. Not acceptable.

QE, are you absolutely sure - might he have embellished the truth?

If it did happen, it's a sacking offence for the teacher almost certainly.

Fing hyell. Report her to the head straight away. Unless it was a re-enactment of school in the Victorian era she shouldn'tr even have a flippin hat with a d on it in the class.

if no luck with head then general teaching council
