but I suppose, I can see it from the teacher's perspective.
She has no temperature. She has, what looks like to me, a heat rash. And err that's it. Their classrooms are unbelievably hot. They did tell me that they are trying to leave windows and doors open to cool them down. She has very thick hair and has always had a tendency to over heat.
But I am in a new job, only in about the second month of it and already, between the two of them, they've had about a whole week off school (validly so because they were ill).
Dd's teacher, who doesn't see eye to eye with me, said 'ooh she needs to be checked out by a doctor'. I said 'she's not ill, she's got a rash that will probably go away the minute she steps out into the playground' and she said 'well, we have to be careful with rashes'.
Well YES, with rashes that don't blanch and rashes when a child is obviously ill but rashes (and honestly, you can hardly see it - they had to position her right under a light to show me where it was) when a child is sitting in maths, answering questions, laughing with her mate, in an obviously overheated classroom arrrghhhhhhhhhh
