I am a yr 13 form tutor. Obviously not seeing much of them any more but had to tell of my tutees off yesterday after he was exceptionally rude to one of my colleagues. Colleague had a moderation visit (NCFE so only 24 hours notice) so had to cancel a pre-arranged revision session. Colleague popped down to the common room to apologise and give some revision materials out and said student refused to look at or speak to her. I told him off. He was obnoxious back, saying that my colleague should seriously consider whether teaching is for her He was not happy being told off, but he absolutely deserved it. End of the day - email from the head asking me to see her as a student had made a complaint about me. Yr 13 had not only put in a compliant (to the admin woman who deals with HR!) but had told her that I have inappropriate pictures on my twitter account! I am SO cross. The twitter thing is nonsense but it's so obviously a calculated attempt to get me into serious trouble. His dad is backing him up and is coming in tomorrow for a meeting with the head. 😡
