My DS had a settling in visit at his school this week and found out only the next day (from him and pre-school) that he was told off twice and the teacher refused to give him a sticker at end for bad behaviour. The preschool are upset about it, as apparently what he did was take a long time in the toilet when he should have been sitting down for the story, but the teacher hadn't noticed he was missing. Also he was told off for putting a toy in his pocket.(implication I guess that he was trying to take it home)
I went to ask the teacher what had happened really and she was very stroppy with me, I guess as I was questioning her, though I tried to be gentle about it. I tried to say that he is not disobedient generally and didn't want her to think that from start. Now I know this might sound like I'm oversensitive and if he was naughty then he should be told off etc etc but I'm upset that his school career should have begun like this. He is a loving, caring and at times lively child and pre school assure me he isn't naughty but is generally very obliging.
