swearing - youtube video/ primary

[worriednow1]

wanted to show one video clip in lesson in science lesson and at the beginning of the clip ( just before the experiment) 2 guys in the video said to each other f... o... I did not watch it first as I took the suggested link from the website resources... -the class laughed so I apologised and said it is not appropriate, scrolled to the experiment and then did not dwell on it. Well...I will not sleep tonight...worried about tomorrow if kids complain...WWYD?

They'll hear worse in the playground!

I'm a HT and wouldn't be impressed at that- not the swearing but I would expect you to have watched the clip first and to have told me that it had happened so that I was aware of the issue if any parents raised it. See your HT first thing tomorrow.

I am secondary and many of our videos have swearing. If it comes up without me expecting (other colleagues have watched it and no mention) I apologise at the time briefly then make a more specific 'statement' at the end. Sort of summing up the content and linking it to the course followed by an apology for the language.

I think much depends on your school and the age. "F off" is quite harsh for primary. I would be a bit shifty about that at secondary so get your big girl pants on about why you didn't check it first. Not judging - I have done it as well but at the end of the day this is the sort of thing that will happen.

Most reasonable parents will accept a blushy apology
