Context: 12 year old had bag stolen last week, contents included school issued tablet. Shaken up but ok. Went to school the next day and was very well supported by all staff, but one teacher in class X asked him where his tablet was. He started to explain and was cut off and told it was his responsibility for not having it. He tried to explain again he didn’t have it because it had been stolen but in the meantime he wasn’t sure what to do. She told him it was still his responsibility for not having it😡he was confused, upset and ended up apologising for not having it.
I contacted the school and had 0 response so have followed up again. In the meantime, he still has no tablet as school are organising a new one, and he’s nervous to go to that class, understandably. Am I unreasonable to say he won’t be attending that lesson until we have reached a resolution from last week? Important to note he has autism and takes things literally and has processing disorder so has found this whole experience confusing and scary. SEND needs aside, I think any child being shouted at for not having a piece of school equipment through no fault
of their own isn’t ok.
