To think it's not normal for a child in year 1 to not care about wetting themselves?

My DS(5) still has accidents. He doesn't usually do it whilst out or at school which makes me think he can control it. He often holds it in to the last minute and then doesn't want to stop playing/watching tv. He was a bit of a nightmare to potty train, understood that he had to go to the toilet but didn't seem to care, he'd also wee on the floor and find it hilarious (I just left him half naked as it was summer which I think was a mistake), in the end I had to bribe him with chocolate buttons.

He's never been bothered at all when he has an accident, I never told him off or anything as I know you're not meant to but lately I've had to as he just doesn't seem to care and I don't want him to get teased!

Last week he wet himself at school, I asked him how he felt about it and he said worried that the teacher would tell him off but she didn't. AIBU to think a child in year 1 should be at least a little embarrassed/upset they have wet themselves? His lack of social awareness honestly worries me.
