Hi all, just after some advice.
My ds currently in reception came out of school today with a red mark along the length of his eyebrow and above. I noticed it immediately as he came out of the door. I asked him how he got it and gave me story about falling on a bench during playtime and he was 'brave' and didn't say anything.
The thing I'm having trouble getting my head around is that although he didn't have his usual teacher this afternoon, it was another who he's had numerous times before, but she never noticed it. Even now 3.5 hours later it's still red and going darker, so will eventually become a bruise by tomorrow or day after.
I feel I need to say something to let them know, it has not happened at home and actually occurred whilst in their care and they didn't notice it as I'm concerned that whilst school can easily point the finger at a parent, who can the parent point the finger at? Previous experience with schools tell me they're only too ready to cover their backs. What would you do?
