Firstly a bit of back story: this teacher was new in last year. Not an NQT, but shes mid 20s.
Friends DS is very much an overachiever. Has already been moved up a year. He gets set work in school and will complete it a lot quicker than the other children and then will sit and read his book while the others catch up. This teacher taught him last year, and took a disliking to it, and pulled in my friend and her DP a couple of times about it- but apparantly all the teacher did was critisize, not actually suggest any practical advice.
Anyway, her DD is now being taught by the same teacher- and has had problems from day one. Straight away she was sat in the front of the class, and has told her Mum this teacher likes to single her out whenever she can. Apprantley she will get sent out of class for the smallest thing, such as forgetting her pencil case while other children get away with it.
The last incident was yesterday. Friends DD was getting changed after swimming, and her and another girl couldnt find their underwear so left their costume on underneath their uniform (still in summer dresses)- friends DD was shouted at and accused of being lazy, while not a word was said to the other girl.
Would ny friend BU to make a complaint to the head? She has said she doesnt want to talk to the teacher because of the experiences she had with her last year.
