These teachers and their questionable choices

Either report it or don't.

But if you aren't going to report it, don't go around saying how terrible they are as mothers, because you are complicit because you have not reported.

Report to the police. They will have drugs in the house. They don't magically appear at the actual party. And of course you know about these gatherings when they are taking drugs and putting their kids at risk too...

Report to social services that you have concerns. A visit may be enough to make them panic and reconsider their actions.

Others you are responsible for continuing to put these children at risk.

If, of course, you are even telling the truth in the first place.

If you were actually concerned you would have reported it already. You don't need evidence.
I suspect you're actually just judgey and jealous.

She's getting hate because she's complaining about how bad the people are, how they're endangering their own children and others ... but finding weak/crap excuses about how she can't possibly call social services

Even if you are right and they are off their face every weekend they are not a risk to your or other peoples children. I highly doubt that they are turning up to work drunk or on drugs. If they are then of course they should be dismissed. It sounds more like a kind of righteous indignation than anything else and a bit of glee at them being in trouble due to their job.

If their kids are genuinely in danger and I don't mean asleep in the house being watched by others or they are intoxicated at work, yes you should report them either to social services. However I would imagine that if you follow enough doctors, dentists, soc workers, politicians etc you will find some who have lifestyles you disapprove of.

So what advice do you think anyone can give you?
You have no evidence so you can't report it.
What do you expect MNetters to do? We can agree that its not ideal behaviour (well some of us can) but unless you can prove what you say nobody in authority will take it seriously as you could be anyone making any old shit up because Mrs Bloggs told your little Jimmy off

Them being teachers is irrelevant .

If you're worried about their drug use or the welfare of their children , you should report it regardless if they're teachers or Jane down the road on the dole.

OP: OMG my kids teachers are doing drugs and going to raves, I've seen it, I KNOW it's true. I've seen photos and all sorts. Their kids are neglected too...
MN: so ring social services
OP: oh ermmm errr ermmm well I can't do that because I have no evidence... So i errr can't do that. Nope ...

You definitely don't need evidence to speak to the NSPCC for advice. You will get much better advice there than from mumsnet.

However, I am concerned about the idea that taking class a drugs isn't a concern for teachers as they have their own life. Teachers have a massive role in safeguarding. Term is about to start. I will get another hour or so on county lines, how to spot children involved and how to safeguard them. I know everyone on munsnet sources their drugs entirely crime free somehow but that doesn't seem realistic...even if they buy them from nice Mr so and so - where did they come from before that.

This.

You are getting a lot of hate here, I'm quite surprised! Go with your gut. Forget the fact that they are teachers, judge the safety of their children in their care.

If you are that concerned about them as mothers, then raise an anonymous tip to social services... I was told once that if its just 1 persons complaint, they will log it but won't act, but if they have 2 separate complaints then they investigate and do a call or a home visit - depending on level of concern. SS will be able to judge whether this is quite normal (it may not be you or I's normal, but for others it is) or something to investigate.

Then the school will be notified accordingly. I wouldn't start saying anything to their place of work, that is really really unfair!

It’s a bank holiday and the school summer holidays so there was no ‘teaching with a comedown on Monday’….

that being said a child sleeping on the floor of nottinghill carnival doesn’t sound good. On the grass away from the main bit? Or actually on the road?

This!

A friend of mine was deputy head of a large primary school in a very deprived area. Despite her smoking weed and drinking shedloads most weekends, that school went from "requires improvement" to "outstanding" during the time she was in post. It didn't affect her work at all.

OP it’s not your job to find evidence, if you’re concerned then report it, then leave SS to do their job. Otherwise you are just gossiping.

This. Its going to make a great report "I was at a drug addled rave and I want to tell you about three women at the drug addled rave".

The OP apparently thinks taking the family to Notting Hill Carnival is some kind of crime/child abuse so I'd question their judgement in general.

Why? Surely you've just got to tale the details from the post as facts like every thread on here, otherwise all you'd be doing is going around making assumptions and your own versions of every post.

This. It's nothing to do with them being teachers, unless you want to get a bit of teacher bashing in as well.

But you know it's facts and true you've seen it with your own eyes....

I suppose because I dont believe OP that they are taking drugs to begin with. She either is taking drugs with them every time to know the details, or it never happened to begin with.

Whilst I don't agree with drug taking, if it's not harming the children or affecting their teaching, and it's not blatant/public, what's the issue?
Yes teachers need to be role models to the children, but they're doing this in private.

It isn't ideal but it isn't for you to insist that teachers live some sort of trad wife lifestyle either. The recruitment crisis in schools is already a real problem, where do you think schools will find these puritan teaching staff that you want?

It's funny because whenever a woman posts on here that her DH has been out and taking cocaine literally every single comment is LTB and that poeole wouldnt tolerate any drug taking. Absolutely no one is ever in favour of the DH. And now look at these comments because it's 3 women taking coke....MN double standards at its finest!!

But OP, I'd personally just keep out of it and leave them to it. People everywhere are on coke, probably way more people than you realise.

How is teaching on a comedown any worse than teaching with a hangover? I know a lot of teachers and many of them are pretty boozy. (I’m not judging or criticising btw, just an observation).

You don't have to provide evidence to report a child protection concern to social services, that's their job. You raise the concern based on what you know and it is their responsibility to look into it. That's all you need to do, if you have a genuine concern report it, you'll feel better knowing it is now the responsibility of the professionals to deal with.

Maybe get that OP who was spying on takeaway workers not stealing local wildlife to eait it, she can get her dangerous dog and hide in the bushes and get some evidence of the teacher's partying.

You can report to the governors anonymously 🤷

POLICE POLICE blooming teachers trying to have fun and have a life how dare they, exist outside school gates, go get them and drive them back to the school. They must have jumped over the fence or something.
