Teacher wouldn't let DS go to the toilet

What are the standard rules for toilet breaks in year 1?

I'm livid with the teacher as yesterday ds 5, wet himself at school. He says when he came in from lunchtime he needed a wee, but the teacher wouldn't let him go, he said he asked again after the first lesson and said he really needed to go, but she refused again. He held on until the end of the day but wet himself on the way to the toilet.
The afternoon runs for 2 and half hours with no afternoon playtime.

Would it be unreasonable to complain?

Maybe it's just me but I've never felt the need to make assumptions about anyone based on what they write online. I wouldn't assume a doctor or a nurse is stupid because they don't error check posts etc. It just strikes me as an odd thing to do.

Now, when I've looked at applications for teaching posts with apostrphes and commas all over the place then I absolutely care. But online I don't. All about context.

The only reason I got involved in that was because I felt people were being a bit harsh towards MissPeters (I think it was) and then resorted to spag comments. I didn't agree with her approach to the OP but she quickly got all kinds of you shouldn't be working with children, I hope a child has an accident, and oh your grammar is awful. It felt a bit uncalled for to me.

No one said anything about misspeters' grammar until one comment today - the comments you kicked off about were aimed specifically at missvicky1989 and icheetham.
