kids been at full time school for 3 weeks now and ive had "can i have a word please mrs dissle" twice now already....THE SHAME..

[dissle]

any one else been pulled up by the teacher for behaviour stuff?

Oh yes... had our first meeting with the headteacher today!

Curiously enough the bad behaviour only takes place in the school, so I have bounced the ball back to them to see what are they going to do about him being constantly bullied, or as they now put it, being rejected by other children.

Once so far (nothing major). Improvement on last year as at this stage I'd had a phone call home as well. As a teacher myself I HATED being on the receiving end of that even though I've made plenty of those type of calls myself!

MeMySonAndI .. don't know anything about your situation but I would try not to see it as 'them' and 'us' .. maybe you could work together, maybe you could consider playdates to help him socialise .. sounds a difficult situation if you consider him being constantly bullied

nice play on words is that "bieng rejected by other children" ha, what a crock!!!
headteacher male or female?

Oh no, we are working together now they have provided a list of who to avoid even in playdates, and are finiding him a buddy to help him settle in.

In exchange, teacher will add a not to his daily report if we need to touch a particular topic of his behaviour at home. Which allows for us to keep a good-behaviour-at-school chart

a note

I could kill Dh for disasembling my laptop's keyboard... never being the same since !

Us too. Is there something about the male species of four/five year olds that I am missing? I have half a mind to write down all these incidents and remind him of them on his wedding day (I will be the haggard one in the wedding photos with lots of grey hairs and worry lines).

Betty, fear not, if yours is like mine, there will be no weddings...only prison visits my lovely.....still haggard and grey, with happy memories of petty crime behind him.

i think thats an awful thing to say about a child, rejected by other children. is it the new way of saying bullied then?

yes hifi, thats the point, not nice at all is it.
They think they are bieng clever by giving it another title, its still bloody bullying, no matter how they tart it up.

has your kdi broken TWO windows at school yet?
oh no then you ant sit ont he hard mums bench

on a weekly babsis up until the middle of yr1!!

how I didn't lose the plot I don't know!!!

two windows.....NO WAY!
that is well hard cod, mine has just spat water at other kids......puff in comparison to yours

I have a friend who was expelled from school at the tender age of 13, for accidentally setting the chemistry lab on fire.

And I vouch for him that it was an accident, he was one of the most distracted person I have ever met!

My mam was called in to school when I was 9 as I called someone a virgin

Had no idea what it meant at all, but clearly school thought my mam was running a house of ill repute by the way they questioned her

"rejected by other children" Is a term often used when the school talk to me about my ds1 now 9. He came home with a ripped coat, split lip and ripped trousers....the school said "bullying doesn't happen here but he is rejected by other children because they don't understand his sense of humour" ????????????

Still trying to figure that out!

I remember reading advice to run a mile from any school that claims that bullying doesn't happen there...

Really, are they not listening to themselves when they tell you that?

Cod, ds1 broke a window on the swchool skiing trip - does that entitle me to sit on the hard mothers' bench?
(except of course i was very embarassed)

I've been sent to see the head as ds was wearing a necklace (was a teachers aid who hates kids) and to the deputy as someone told ds to hit someone so he did and the smelly kid in the class put his coat over ds head. ds didn't like it so he punched him. I know he should keep his hands to himsdelf but he's only 5 and forgets in the heat of battle.

Doesn't help that we had a teacher exchange to a teacher in America and she says she can't believe how badly behaved british children are - she hasn't seen anything like it......I'm waiting til parents evening to tell her at least they don't bring in guns or knives

Hello everyone, I needed this thread! My son's had a visit to the headteacher for playing too rough & was told off for hitting. One of his friends was being teased & asked him to help but all the teacher saw was my son hitting an innocent looking girl (I used to be one of those so I know how it works - used to hit my brother and then go 'ouch').

I totally support the school because I know they need to keep order & ds does need to learn more self control but I don't want my son to get labelled as 'bad' or a troublemaker. Fun, isn't it?
