to fuming that there has been no staff at the local secondary school since 3.30pm to take a serious complaint about bullying and harrasment

[tomhardyismydh]

I walked past the house of a family who I do know but not terribly well and I am aware there middle daughter is being bullied.

outside was a group of girls looking in through their window shouting and jeering and swearing. I know the mum works some afternoons so I did intervien and tell the group of girls to leave them alone and move away from the house...in hindsight a bit silly of me as I did have my 5 yr old dd with me, but I wasn't in any way afraid forour safety or anything. Turns out the mum was home and she also then came out. They took the message and went away, but then followed me up the street shouting and swearing and berating me. It was laughable really but attempted to call non emergency police no just to show the little shits they can get away with behaving like this, but my bloody mobile died on me.

Anyway I have been trying to call the school since 3.30 and no one has been available to take my call, and have just now been told all senior management staff left at 4.15 and receptionist cant locate any other teaching staff. no one will be in over half term. now I m shocked that the head did not pick up his answer messages before leaving the school for a whole week, I had left one message at 3.30 and one at 4pm. I find it hard to even believe the head of a secondary school would even finish at 4.15.

Im tempted to call the non emergancy no again to give the message to the school this not acceptable, but Im sure this is very little the police would even be able to do.

also I want to say bunch of little bitches how horrible for a group of girls to behave like this!!!!!

OWO -

Maybe the teachers should try mainlining absinthe?

he OP can't tell if the teachers had all left or that no one was answering the phone. So I repeat, even if they were in school it is not the teachers that answer the school phone, it's office staff

I was told by receptionist that the senior team had all left at 4.15.

OP you appear to not be reading the posts explaining why you are BU.

Yes the school will discipline the girls involved, if they can work out who they are. This will obviously have to happen after halfterm. They are powerless until the girls are back in the charge of the school.

You just seem angry that it happened tbh and want big scary teachers to come and save you - that's not their job I'm afraid, if there was an immediate disorder or harassment, the police were the correct call. Shame you ran out of battery, but you are blaming the school when they couldn't do anything there and then anyway.

If you learn anything from this thread, please be aware that teachers, like police, like social services staff, like A and E staff, all do brilliant jobs during their working hours and while they will go above and beyond, can never be expected to answer phones to you outwith their working hours.

Teachers drink?? holy fucking God....our children are not safe I tell ya....

Am I to believe that teachers have got a life. Well, the very thought of it. I must alert the elders.

Do you, OP, stay for hours after your own clocking off time just incase? Nope, thought not. School is over and err, they went home. Quelle horreur.

They'll be posting drunken pictures on facebook next...

loving how the OP has selective-post-blindness...

When I was at school it was often stressed about how we were representing the school and we were their responsibility until we reached home.

When I work a Friday we're away 3pm on the dot as that is our finishing time as noted down in our contracts.

lol at this thread!!!

fruit shoots?? with vodka added i guess

what year were these girls op???

Sorry tomhardyismydh I missed the statement "I was told by receptionist that the senior team had all left at 4.15."
But I'm confused, so you did manage to speak to someone about your concern and they told you that the senior staff had left (after a time that is identified as their legally contracted hours)?

Are we invading an AIBU drunkards?

Why the flip should senior staff stay after 4.15pm? What if they were going to stay with family, going on holiday, heading to the pub for leaving drinks or any other myriad of personal things that are none of your business?

You seem determined to put the school staff in the wrong! Fwiw I was out of school like a shot at approx 3.10 today! Means I'll be back in next week, but hey ho, my choice.

probably looked about 13 - 14 in age

Lol at the thought that a school is somehow seen as the 4th emergency service and that ringing them after hours st the dnd if term should be seen as a 999 call.

The school will be interested and they will pick this up when term begins, if they have the right info and probably if the community officers that usually liaise between schools and said communities have been informed. Ring them: they have a legal obligation to act on your call within a certain timeframe. The school does not.

year 10 or 11 then

my dd's say all the secondary teachers in their schools are 'legends'

you know that dont you,all you teachers out there...you will be fondly remembered

i LOVE hearing my girls chat about their teachers. take in chocolate if you want to be remembered. or cookies. my girls LOVE their teachers. secondary teachers are special

yesterday as i have previously said i couldn't careless what time they leave or work until i felt it UR that they had not taken answerphone messages before leaving and called me back, regardless of what time it was. based on the fact this was a serious incident involving their pupils.

Typos = combination of iPhone + feckless teacher drinking wine Ag end of term

Shortarsefuck nice line

FFS teachers can a. drink out of work b. actually leave work and c. if you were that concerned then surely the police would be the sensible call and they can deal with it accordingly.

this was 2 messages on the heads own answer phone by the way. but I have said this already
