Unhappy with my child's school and don't know what to do!

[Riclea2609]

Hello does any body have any advice on home schooling as I'm very in happy with the way my son is treated at school and after over a year of getting no where I feel it's time I need to do something to get him out. He's being kept in one room for work, lunch and play I feel he's being singled out and don't feel I'm able to talk to any of the teachers or the head master as I get an un professional response and feel like I'm laughed at. There's been a few incidents that I'm not happy with and really should of reported the school. Today my son was man handled by another students mum in a classroom where teachers should of been there to deal with the situation.

Is there a aren't partnership near you? They might be able to help.

Using one room for work, play and food isn't that uncommon OP. Especially small schools, and in winter when its too cold and wet to play outside.
Have you written to governors?
Do you have other schools you could send DS to?

There is a home ed topic, i'm sure you will get lots of help there. Very friendly and full of advice.

What do mean he's kept in one room for lunch and play and work, so he doesn't socialise with other students has no friends. Why have they done this to your child and only your child. Can he not work with others or is their some underling issue you have not mentioned. As no school should not be separating their students like that.if their is no issues involved I would move him out and find another school or home school him till one comes available as no child doesn't deserve that

Can't you send him to another school?

What was the lead up to the manhandling situation?

Is it only your son who is kept in the one room or all of the class? What is the reason?

I was unhappy with my sons school (in yr 3 at the time) I had massive issues with the senco and how incompetent she was to do her job (I wasn't the only one to feel this but seemed to be the only one who felt strong enough to peruse the matter although several parents have followed since). I had several meetings with the head and just felt like I was getting nowhere so I decided to move schools. Process was simple and easy and he had a place in my chosen school within 6 weeks. New school is fab and he has now been there for nearly a whole year and making excellent progress and settled in instantly.

Rather then home school have you looked at simply moving schools?

Here's the Home Ed topic. A browse in there might be a good start in weighing up if that's what you want to do, and if so how you might go about it.

If you are not yet sure about Home Ed, have you looked to see if there are any other schools you might be able to move him to?

Do you mean he's the only one in this room he's kept in all day?
There must be a reason for that. Have you asked?
