When a school contacts a parent about any number of issues they dont know what they are walking into....some parents could go nuts for instance if they are not doing their homework, or skiving lessons, do you think parents should be involved if kids are skipping school? why should parents be kept in the dark if their child leaves home as Harry and is called Harriet at school, its not like it wouldn't get back to them by other means, parents dont exist in a bubble they usually know what is going on at school with their children and will know other parents of other children and will speak to them ....this is just nonsense to think a child can keep that from their parents even if they dont tell them directly....

Yep, government sponsored bullying and when they start doing it, any child that gets abused, neglected or thrown out as a result, they will be responsible for, all this bull**** about them ‘protecting kids’ then they go and implement policies purposefully putting kids in harms way because they don’t like who they are, it’s gross.

A lot of the time schools are the only safe space for kids who grow up in hostile or uncomfortable surroundings and to choose to take that away from the most already marginalised people, is just a full on act of cruelty

I would never consider secondary schools to be a safe place, full of bullies hands up anyone who wasn't bullied at secondary school

Bullying by teachers is extremely common. Sadly.

I can testify to that at Primary School.

We had teachers who had obvious dislikes for some students yes

I am a bit confused by this safe haven, most schools do nothing about bullying and kids wont report it as it makes it worse

[Cherie]

You didn't answer my question Liam, do you think parents or guardians should be contacted if students are skipping lessons or falling behind with their homework?

Schools keeping that sort of thing secret would be a blatent disregard for safeguarding.
