My child is in primary school and today has come home with an online safety parent agreement. I'm all for online safety and I am happy to agree to most points apart from this one… AIBU?
I/we also agree not to share school related information or images online or post material that may bring the school or any individual within it into disrepute. (Rather than posting negative material online, any parent, distressed or concerned about an aspect of school should make immediate contact for the member of staff. Negative postings about the school would impact on the reputation of the whole community. Parents are encouraged to report breaches so that we can protect the reputation of the school, staff, pupils and parents).
I wouldn't mind but this school sends out the most aggressive emails I've ever seen. At the beginning of Covid a poor parent was publicly shamed for recommending an online teaching website to other parents on WhatsApp. When the rule of six started parents were told they could no longer go to the park next door or the police would be called. We were also told that only the parents of a child could collect them from the school and no one could car share - giving working parents an impossible task. This latest rule seems to be an attempt to prevent any parent from voicing concerns publicly, which we are more than entitled to do.
