Sorry. Posted too soon. She had a wound under her eye. The teacher told my dh she had an argument with another child and she was hit. But she didn’t cry. Oh hen made to sign something. Which he didn’t read Angry. I don’t he was a little thrown back as he doesn’t really pick her up that often so wasn’t sure what to say. But no incident report was sent home. Or a proper explanation given. Should I complain?WWYD ?

If it was my dd, I would just speak to the room leader in the morning and go from there.

Complain about what? That they explained to your husband what had happened and he clearly wasn't listening so signed something but doesn't know what?
I'd be more cross with him for not finding out what had happened.

Missonihoni · 23/11/2017 18:19

As above

smellybeanpole · 23/11/2017 18:23

Yes. I was really cross with him. But shouldn’t some sort of written comments be sent home to explain what actually happened? It’s a pretty deep cut.

No why would they send a letter when they have spoken to your husband. What do you want a police report.

If you cannot trust your husband to retain simple information I wouldn't send him to do pick up again.

dertyyuoih2 · 23/11/2017 18:28

It will be recorded on their nursery system, but they’ve had a verbal conversation with your Hubbie and explained what happened. Something home with her would just be repeating the same thing in convo?
I’d seek clarification tomorrow re the incident if you want to know more.
Realistically he should have read what he signed 🙈🙈 and should have asked more questions?
My DS nursery ring home if a bump to head of verbally tell us when we get there if anything else.
He’s had shiners from running into stuff lots of times

When something happens at our nursery they fill an accident/ incident form which we sign at pick up and they keep. It’s up to the person picking up to read/ discuss what happened.

Ok. So I’m overreacting I see. Blush. My other dc are teens now and back in the day they called home and sent a letter in their book bag just explaining what happened.

They've told your husband what happened and he's signed an accident report. They have explained what happened. They don't need to do it in triplicate!

FitBitFanClub · 23/11/2017 18:36

they called home and sent a letter in their book bag just explaining what happened.
And on this occasion they spoke in person to your husband. Which ought to be better - had he only been able to concentrate on retaining what they actually said. That's hardly their fault.

ineedamoreadultieradult · 23/11/2017 18:38

They told.the child's father and he signed a document to acknowledge that fact. It is your DH who is at fault but nothing stopping you asking about it tomorrow and asking to see the accident report.

Shannaratiger · 23/11/2017 18:38

At the primary school where I word a slip is always sent explaining what happened, when and what was done. Thought this was law.

Shannaratiger · 23/11/2017 18:40

Sorry missed the line about signing but not reading. Blush In this case it's fine not to have anything sent home.

smellybeanpole · 23/11/2017 18:43

Dh excuse was that dd was crying hysterically and he just quickly signed the paper and left. He said he thought he would get a copy of the letter he signed in the book bag.

You can't complain about something he made an assumption about.

No, it's not the law. Good practice, maybe, but not law. And if staff have spoken to a parent, then that might supercede a note.

AlcoholicsUnanimous · 23/11/2017 20:06

It's much better to talk to parents about injuries so you know they've received the information then to send a note that may get lost/ forgotten about. Unless, it seems, the parent doesn't listen to the information.

insancerre · 23/11/2017 20:08

We never give parents copies of our accident forms
You could ask for clarification next time you are in but I don't see what you have to complain about

shakeyourcaboose · 23/11/2017 20:13

thelast they might tell you what your DD to provoke this really?? Come on!
