TA on Twitter - message about kids

So I woke up this morning to a wassap morning message with a screenshot of a twitter message from my child's former TA that was made at a time when my child was having problems in the class and the school weren't dealing with it. Meetings with head about the TA.

The friend sent me this as gossip and fun but the tweet has wound me up and made me question if she is supposed to tweet.

Anyway looking back over my diary I realised the tweet was on the same day as the incident I complained about, the meeting with the head was scheduled the day after. The tweet says 'ugh others people's children. Sometimes wonder why I work with them'. So obviously aimed at this incident which had involved a number of children that day.

Her profile on twitter is open so I could go and find it. How could she be so rude and stupid?! Not to mention offensive and unprofessional? Do TAs have the same duty as teachers to be careful of what they put in social media?

I'm obviously annoyed as my child was caught up in something this day which was later dealt with by the head. But she has tweeted this vague ugh tweet about children she works with every day!!!

We have strict rules about using social media, accounts have to be private, must not say anything re school, colleagues, children. Unprofessional of her, we all have bad days, and sometimes need a whinge, but this was silly.
