We have discussed this many times on this forum about how 1 or 2 parents get something into their heads and decide they need to act for the majority and be outraged for everyone on behalf of the little darlings and usually it ends up with a perfectly good teacher losing their job

i beg to differ more than 1 or 2 of the parents have said they were not informed nor did their kids understand that this would happen

doesn't say much for teaching if they couldn't ensure they did



and in any case this isn't something they should be doing in school

and getting the kids to vote on what to do with it afterwards doesn't mean they agreed to start with

there is a time and place for everything and school isn't the place for this


as to Ofsted i remember they said a certain social services department was great too !
