Shocked by hatred of kids & parents on TES website

I've spent a bit of time reading the TES website which contains threads and postings from teachers and I am stunned by the level of hatred and abuse directed towards students and their parents. I am horrified to think that some of these creatures may actually be teaching my kids!
It appears that the "state of war" we read about it British classrooms is by no means one way traffic - the teachers
seem to relish getting in on the all the drama.

Don't get me started on LA's and HE, Vallhala.
Some LA's are great in respect of HE, but some are just a bunch of morons.
I've had good experiences in the past re inspection of HE and good reports/feedback. However, just lately they seemed to have been doing a revamp and as a result they have got a bit above themselves. Bad move where I'm concerned. However, after a very strong letter to them telling them what they are not going to do, and what I'm not going to do, and what they can and cannot do, they have realized that they have bitten off more than they can chew with me.
However, it's still a better choice than having a headmistress who already has a child's car marked because they come under the 'looked after' category. Statistics in terms of looked after children flourishing in mainstream education are deplorable.

Just checking with you Valhalla to see how things have panned out for you.:)

Has anyone got a link to those statistics on Looked after children, or are they a fiction.

The language used by some head teachers on TES is disgraceful. They have no empathy with children with Special Educational Needs.

No, the figures are not a fiction. Why don't you Google it?

Whilst the problems of poor parenting are pushed directly as the fault of poor teaching, then nothing will change. When teachers go on TES they are not on duty and do not deserve to have their spelling marked by those who live life without fault.

You should see what the cabin crew say about SLF on the Pprune forum.

(SLF is self loading freight)
