Aibu about these girls and tutor spoiling college course?

Need a rant! Am currently doing an nvq college course for a beauty course and a couple of the girls (along with the tutor) are spoiling it for everyone.

There's 8 of us on it and the same 2 girls are late every week (starts at 9:15 till 5) and not just 10/20 mins it's always at least 90 if not till after lunchtime. All of us have children except one of the persistently late girls but the rest of us manage to get there on time. They never apologise for being late and cause a big commotion when they come in laughing/sniggering/fussing about.

Worse than this though is that the tutor a lot of the time waits for them to arrive rather than saying for them to catch up in their own time, she often doesn't start for an hour as they text to say they're on their way but are obviously a long way off getting there. So the rest of us have run around doing drop offs to get in but apparently for no reason. She also seems to have a soft spot for these girls and never says anything to them for being late it's so aggravating as she'll pull up other people for being off ill or with ill children.

Aibu that it annoys me so much??
It's really ruining the course for me and the others, as we end up having about waiting for the others and you all finish with just a pass or fail so none of us will be recognised for coming in more than they will for turning up when they feel like it.

Doing A levels I used to have a teacher that, if you were late to class, he wouldn't want you to apologise, you had to sneak in uber quietly and sit at the back and not disturb anybody. if you came in and said sorry, he would blow up and say you were incredibly rude for interrupting everybody else's learning. He always started on time and if you were slow to get going that was your lookout, he didn't repeat stuff needlessly, you had to get it from others separately.

Other teachers expected a sorry if you were late.

Although he was the odd one out, always stuck with me and I thought he was the one that was right. You were supposed to go and apologise at the end of the lesson so you didn't get off scot free. just didn't interfere with anybody else's learning.

It sounds like your teacher could do with following after my old teacher!
