AIBU teachers don't like nicknames?

AIBU at school, they insist on calling children by their full names. My primary aged children-Tobias, Noah, Willow, Feodora, Cecilia, Skyla, Xander- Like to be called by their nn (Toby, Ceci, Feo, Skye, Xander) however the school has decided to make all the teachers call them by the real names. I see this as a truly pointless rule as when my children have politely asked them to call them by their nn the have replied, Sorry we have to call you by your full name. I really don't understand this, i arranged a meeting with one of the deputy heads but they refused to see me (i've never caused any problems, I'm the drop and pick up only type of parent) I don't see why they are just making the children uncomfortable!
AIBU????
