Sorry, just feel really angry about this. DD (6yrs) fell badly on way to school this morning. Ended up with cuts and grazes to her hands, both knees, shins and bruised chin. Poor little thing was very upset and worried that she had broken her glasses. As we were closer to the school than anywhere else we continued down the road, but on ariving at the gate teacher/playground asst on duty saw DD in floods of tears with blood running down legs and said for her to go to the first aid room. I asked if I should/could go with her and was told "NO" and DD was told to say "Bye to Mum, you'll see her at home time" and she was lead away by an older child. I can understand security and all that but surely there can be common sense exceptions.

Even prisoners get treated with more sympathy! Least they could have done was to phone you later and let you know everything was ok. Security? It is a school isn't it? Horrid people, too much power!

thats really mean she could have used common sense and let you in, not sure why they call it common sense its not very common!!!

I hope your dd is ok tonight and enjoyed her special tea

At least if a parent went in she would be allowed a plaster on as first aiders aren't allowed to do them !
I would have insisted I went in to sort her out

The little girl in this thread would be 23 now! Hopefully she’s over the ordeal.

The child is 24 by now so I suspect she's feeling much better!
