After watching an undrcover documentry on how teachers are treated i wouldnt do the job for any amount of money.The abuse and violence they suffer is disgraceful.

Sleepy you say hes a pain , does he have a history of disciplinary problems at school ?

You mention his brother , did he have disciplinary problems ?

Sometimes teachers take a dislike to certain children and they treat them like cr@p. My daughter had this problem with one teacher and it resulted in her being permanently excluded 3 months before her GCSE's.I had many meetings with the school about it and she was temporarily excluded many times before the permanent one.I am the first to admit that she was one of the worst teen girls I have ever met and she had a habit of answering back all the time whenever teachers told her off.The problem I had was that she was always one of a group whenever things happened,the whole group would be involved in whatever it was that caused trouble but it was only ever my daughter who got punished.Her final "crime" that she was excluded for was getting caught smoking in the girl's toilets.........she was caught by a male teacher who should never have been in the girls loos in the first place.The other 7 girls with her(who were also smoking) didn't even get detention.
I would complain to the local education authority if you don't get a satisfactory outcome from the school.I had to do that and my daughter was at least allowed back into school on GCSE days and she did sit her exams.Good luck!

Steve im not saying a repeated clash.
Reading sleepys thread it tewnds to give you the impression theres a family history regarding older and now tyounger bbrother.
That may be a mistake in posting on sleepys part .
Hence why i asked.



Hope thats cleared things up ?

I think you should hear the other side of the story from his form teacher in front of the head, before you decide who is at fault.

a teacher should never get personal with a pupil, no matter what they really think of them. i must admit though that your son must have done something for this teacher to have just snapped like this. maybe you dont hear all of the story. please let us know what has happened sleepyj. i do think that the teacher should of course be reprimanded for speaking out like this.

This sort of thing goes on so much. Kids are all a pain in the rear at times - it comes with the territory of teaching.
You should complaint to the board of Governors. Do not take this to the head as they tend to brush things under the carpet. Ring the school and ask for the contact details for the clerk to the governors and ensure you get the letter of complaint to her/him before your meeting on Thursday.
Were there any other witnesses (other pupils for example).
There is little wonder kids have no respect for others when this is how they are spoken to.
She sounds unsuitable to be teaching to me.

my older boy has never had any trouble at school ..legend the teacher said that to my older son he was talking about his brother ..

How did you get on sleepy?

I have a motto in life -

Never upset anyone if you need their co-operation.

Bear this in mind when you talk to the Head.

You want a resolution, but you have no actual power in this situation - so you need to be co-operative from the start, and keen to hear both sides of the story.

Of course as a parent, your instinct is to steam in and raise hell, but that will simply underline the impression that your child is a rebel - look at his background.

Be calm, listen, and then see if it can be resolved. If you need to go in hard afterwards, the option is there, but if you start off shouting, you may look foolish if they agree with your side of things.

Good luck - please let us know the outcome.
