To think that the film 'Ted' isn't suitable for an English class of 13yr olds?

I haven't seen the movie, but I believe it's crude and irreverant.

I world in a school, haven't been there long and I don't know the teacher concerned, but today I was told by several people that she has shown her class of 12-13yr old pupils the film over the past few classes. I would be furious if my DC were in this class.

I'm not sure if management know about this and I'm not sure if the school culture allows for whistle-blowing, but I am really tempted to let someone know. What to do?

I'm an English teacher and there's no way I'd show Ted at school at all, basically, except to sixth form in a Media lesson. I wouldn't even use it with my GCSE Media class as I just think it's so inappropriate. I'm quite cautious now after showing 12 and even PG rated movies (for curriculum reasons, I never ever show films just for a jolly) and being unhappy about the amount of bad language or sexual scenes in them - you don't notice the odd 'shit' as an adult but my god do you hear them when there's a classful of kids in front of you...
