Situation is regarding teacher DH.
Appointed in Spring for Sept start as class teacher at local school DD attends. Job throughout agency for first term, contract supposed to start Jan. New HT also started Sept.
Works hard this term. Good feedback. Ofsted comes and gets good feedback. HT says not to apply anywhere else, fill out application for the perm role. End of term approaching so follows up and she comes up with something that could be improved. Not mentioned before and she says 'I guess I should have told you sooner so could fix before end of year.' DH says will have to look elsewhere as can't afford another term on this greatly reduced income. Few days later she calls him unprofessional in front of class TA re his class waiting in corridor.
Goes on interviews and offered every job. Tells School manager will be leaving as HT not there. HT says offer DH full time contract - but two points below salary point he's been on previously. DH declines as we can't afford it and upset by her treatment. Says he would like to leave that week as new school want him to do few days before Xmas. She says he not allowed to tell students he leaving.
Parents and students very upset and approaching his mother at her workplace for explanation and asking me at school gate.
Parent has told me she sent letter out saying she had to let him go as she had concerns about his performance!
He has been inspected four times by Ofsted (at times by three different inspectors) and always positive. As was inspectors feedback this term. Worked so hard this term to secure full time.
I have to see these parents at school, DH sees them at birthday parties, supermarket etc. New school is in same area.
WWYD? Let it go? Is there anything to be done?
