To wonder why school think I am psychic?

[overthinking]

I work full time, so drop DDs at breakfast club at 0745. There is a notice board outside school but the HT doesn't update this until about 8am, so of course I don't see it.
I've just got a call from school to say DD's afternoon school club has been cancelled, and didn't I read the board this morning.
This happens several times a term, AIBU in wanting a text just to let me know. . .

I work in a school and we send out letters to parents and a news letter is posted every day on the whiteboards and the website updated with announcements of upcoming events with dates and times and deadlines at least two weeks in advance. Posters are put up around school reminding students as well.

I get a rush of students/parents phoning/crowding my desk claiming 'they knew nothing about it' on the morning of the event.

Letters are in the bottom of bags/News letter/website is unread and posters are ignored.

What else do you want a school to do OP? Knock on your door?

Sorry OP - that was snarky of me and I apologise. Not all schools are the same and I understand that.

When I get sixteen plus pupils clamouring around my desk asking me to call their parents because they want to stay late for this that or the other when they have known for weeks the event was on that night I get a bit stressed!

I guess I should be grateful that they want to stay!

Redrubyshoes - I feel your pain, I worked in a setting that was really hot on communication, letters, website, posters then texts the night before and there are still a few who knew nothing about an event.

However DS1s school is truely dreadful about the small things (send texts about other things) !) And it isso frustrating!

RubyRed I do understand - I know some parents just don't read things!
I have to admit being anally organised, so I do write things down. Unfortunately, DDs headteacher, lovely as she is, doesn't have organisation as her strong point!

I demand personal attention, RedRuby!

Actually, do you work in DS's school? DS is a frequent clamourer-round-desks for permission to ring home, causing no end of fun with the three-family carshare pickup system.

i write down anything I find out about, honest.
