Sick of Dds teacher

160 replies

Dd is 5 and in Pre school (we’re abroad)
She started to not want to go in, in October, she said the teacher was shouting at the children for not doing the work properly etc (I posted on here) I went in several times, plus Dh too.
The teacher said she didn’t shout etc etc, things got better.
This week, she’s been crying again at bedtime and this morning was crying not to go in again, I ended up getting out of her (eventually) that the teacher has been shouting at her (and others) if she puts her name in the wrong place on the paper 🤷🏻‍♀️apparently she shouts ‘Not there, over here!’
Dd was also upset as she says one of the boys in her class (one of her friends) is always shouted at to sit still and stop playing. I’ve seen this boy, he’s very sweet, but younger and obviously full of energy. I understand he has to learn to try to sit and not play during lessons and so on, but Dd says he cries and cries and his face goes red.
So sick and tired of going in to complain and nothing being done.
Dd finishes with this teacher at the end of June, but we want to stay in the school and have to re register to move up to the next part of school. I don’t want to take her out and put the chance of this in jeopardy, but equally I can’t put my Dd in this situation all the time.
This is not merely a teacher bashing thread, I’m a teacher myself and would
never get cross and shout it a 5 year old put their name in the *Wrong place on a paper!
What else can I do? I also need to work part time, so need to have Dd in Pre school
She adores her friends there, is very well liked, loves the teaching assistant, who she says is *Kind to her 😔

Just give the XX 🥚 a break! Maybe they had a bad experience when they were at school, who cares! Did we find out what country the OP is in? Maybe don't live there is you don't think the culture is suitable for your child?

Sorry but a sweeping generalisation of a complete set of people based on their career, hobby, race, ethnicity I will challenge....

All day every day!

Do you think it's right???

kisstheblarney · 12/01/2024 21:01

@doublexegg so why don't you like teachers then? Your children had nice ones?

Your last post is hard to remember understand though.

I did say i dont like them i did not say I hate them.
Some teachers are wonderful some not so much.
Some shout to much when there is no need but i understand that having a class of 25-27 kids is not easy at all.
its just my choice i cant like everyone i dont like the police either but i dont hate them.
Like i said above i dont like brad pit but i like his films.

Why would a few bad ones colour your view for an entire group of people.

I’ve met awful teachers, police officers, SAHP, cleaners and builders - I don’t judge the entire workforce on something that a few of them have done.

What a prejudice mindset you have.

What job do you do?

None of your business

@doublexegg it's about you not liking teachers.....

Why would you allow them to be in charge of your children?

My children had fab teachers really nice ones had the odd one but nothing out of control.
But i did say I not my children or we i said I.

@doublexegg so why didn't you home school if you don't like teachers.... what a failing!

This is not about my children.

No probs lovely, doesn't get me down. I have many years of experience, teachers are used to the predictable types who say such distasteful things. I'd genuinely love to hear what else you don't like, just for sh*ts and giggles!

I havent said anything distasteful just one word lol.
I think teachers are under pressure alot with parents nowdays,
I feel bad for some and worse for the teachers that leave teaching because of the state of the system.

dandeliondaisy · 12/01/2024 20:37

@doublexegg I bet your kids are a delight and their teachers adore them (and you!)

Thank you for asking but i dont think children should be pulled in to this really silly thing to do to come at any ones children.
But if you must know my children are grown adults.
Hope you are ok dont let a thread pull you to that level.

Doesn't meet it

I also challenge the

I don't like cyclists

What would you suggest would replace teachers, that you would like?,

Thank you for understanding.
