Hi, my DS started high school (Yr7)last week and on second day passed on the message to me (verbal) that a teacher had pulled him and some others over and said he did not have the correct uniform. I will not bore you with the details of that but I assure you, having spent the last 7 weeks trying to get hold of uniform he did have all the correct uniform as specified by the school. I made this point politely over the phone but could not speak to teacher in question and was told I would be called back.
I'll cut to the chase, I did not receive any call back despite being told 3 times since last week that I would get one. I have been worried all weekend, DS had been unsettled. In the end I went out and spent another £17 on uniform (what the heck, I've already spent in the region of £300 just on two DCs 
) just so my DS wouldn't be pulled over again.
I've got it off my chest this evening with a letter. Does anyone else have communication problems like this?
