My dd will be starting in reception in September. Since we found out which school she will be going to I have started volunteering there.
This afternoon I was listening to readers in the back of the year 2 classroom. There is a very difficult boy in the class. Today he punched another child totally unprovoked during a lesson. He missed going outside at lunch time and had to sit outside the head teacher's office instead. During afternoon play he spat at another child so he was brought back inside and was sat in the classroom for the rest of playtime. After playtime he was rude to the teacher and then sat under a table and started kicking the chairs out. He then started shouting that he needed to go to the toilet. The teacher ignored him shouting and said she would not speak to him until he got out from under the table, put the chairs back and put his hand up to ask properly. He stayed under the table and kicked the wall and eventually wet himself. His mum asked me what had happened and is angry that the teacher didn't let him go to the toilet and she thinks he was being naughty because he needed the toilet. I told her I couldn't talk and had to rush home but that I thought she should ask the teacher.
Did the teacher do the right thing?
I'm worried about dd going to this school but I also think there will be naughty peers in any school. WWYD?
