is it just this school?

If this is fairly common they you wouldn't drop Boco in it

hunkermunker · 23/11/2007 10:46

I think others in the area did similar, CD, but I could just be talking out of my backside. Ah, therein lies the reason for no trousers [unmuffled]

foxinsocks · 23/11/2007 10:47

it won't single her out

there are others against it

if she does it as a blind piece (it's not only Boco's school, I think it's the whole LEA), it's only a general rant against the whole principle...

(besides, it's only in T2 you know )

LordVenger · 23/11/2007 10:47

Haha Cod. It's not a "personal" issue, though, is it - it's a school policy. A "personal issue" would be disliking the colour of the assembley room curtains.

SURELY NOT THE WHOLE LEA?

foxinsocks · 23/11/2007 10:47

she told Ofsted didn't she?

I thought they didn't do much

LordVenger · 23/11/2007 10:47

Oh well I can just do it as the whole LEA, then. What county is it?

OP posts:
foxinsocks · 23/11/2007 10:48

I dunno about the LEA. I thought it wasn't only Boco's school?

Blu · 23/11/2007 10:48

It's several schools in that LEA with the same meals povider, isn't it? Wouldn't have to be linked directly to boco.

But personally i thnk the formal route via governors is the first thing to try.

But if someone had independently found out about this bizarre thing and commented on it then what is to stop them...maybe a member of a bullying charity could be asked to be a spokesperson about it, with no referene to bococ at all?

LordVenger · 23/11/2007 10:49

And hey man, T2 has year-on-year ad revenue increase of blah de blah de blah woddevah chews gums at back of class

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah

it's the catering company, NOT the LEA so it applies to 4 schools in the area (little bit less than the whole LEA lol!!)

they do it to fill their lunch quota

CountessDracula · 23/11/2007 10:50

you could do in Hardyesque style

The School in the borough of has been guilty of being cuntish

etc

hunkermunker · 23/11/2007 10:50

Oh, I'm laughing and laughing and my poor youngest son's in the highchair and has Really Finished the apple he was eating

CountessDracula · 23/11/2007 10:50

ooh it erased my gaps

The school in the borough of

LordVenger · 23/11/2007 10:52

threads whole face casually So who's the meal-provider, then? If they do four schools it can't be traced back to Boco, and it's bish bash boosh job's a goodun

she did speak to Ofsted btw who agreed it was bad practice but it wasn't something they would get involved with. If you search for Boco and ofsted, you'll probably find her post on it.

Her hometown is listed on Facebook, but there are three of them in different counties

(I would make a terrible detective)
