DS2 is called Jett ( J as in jug -ett ) his teacher however seems to be pronouncing it Jhett/Shett which I think is maybe the french way of saying it but to me it just sounds like she's calling him Shit.
She has a slight welsh accent but I'm not sure if this is just how it sounds when she tries to say it or if she actually thinks that's how its pronounced.
He's Y1 and so far none of his class seems to have picked up on it, he hasn't either but I'm worried it they might and it will turn into teasing/bullying.
Would you go in and say it sounds like your calling him 'Shit' could you try and say the J or just leave it?
DH who does the school run thinks that as its obvious she isnt calling him that, she's not saying it wrong on purpose and ds doesnt care we should just leave it. We had trouble last year with DS1's teacher in the same school who was refusing to call him by his actual name and ended up having to go in and complain multiple times so already look like the parents who like complaining.
