I've just been to collect my son from his school and he's told me that he won't be cast in his school Christmas play but all the other children will.

I am fumming. I am going to go and speak to his teacher first thing tomorrow morning but I am so angry that I can't work out whether I'm being reasonable or not.

Filee is coming over as one of those parents who think that teachers should be dealing with each child's problem on an individual basis despite the fact that his stupid mother fucked up in the first place and expected the school to be
mind readers when she changed her instructions to the school.

I don't know what happens in church schools, but I have experience of county/community state schools both now and 30 years ago and Christmas was about as religious as it got in primary school. (not saying christmas wasn't religious, just that there wasnt more religion at other times of year). If you can understand Christmas in a non specific cultural way, I don't understand why the rest of it couldn't be understood in a non specific, 'lets all be nice to each other', 'loving your spin on the old pagan rituals way' too.

I mean this is the c of e we are talking about.

(Unless this is a catholic school, in which case OP should have paid more attention to prospectus)
