[A mother has claimed a school behaved
'like something out of a
Charles Dickens novel' after it ruled
her children could only have
bread and butter for lunch
because she owed £17.60.
Katrina Dakin, 31, said
Ravensdale Junior School
in Mickleover, Derbyshire,
cruelly 'punished' her
boys Levi, nine, and Tyler, ten, who were
left hungry because she owed money
for their lunch.]


[Katrina Dakin, 31, said the school
'punished' her two boys,
who were left hungry because
she owed money for their lunch]

This Mother is Wrong
get a bank loan
The school was nice enough
to give them free bread and butter

Or give your own kids a
Emergency Packed Lunch

[The headteacher of Ravensdale Junior School in Mickleover, Derbyshire,
said the rule was brought in so that children
are denied a school lunch whenever a family owes more than £10]

She's lucky they fed them at all. She's responsible for paying for her kids' lunch.

[Vicky.]

If I sent my children to school with bread and butter I'd have social services knocking at my door. It's child neglect.

Erm. You sent them with less than that, and have the social been round?

[LeatherTrumpet]

i dreamed of bread and butter as a kid, all i got was a handful of gravel a a cup of sulphuric acid..

Yes she made it worse taking
it to a Local Newspaper.

She can pay the small debt
it not impossible
to get a small bank loan

The only gravel we had was when we were flogged on the side of the road...

God, I hate emoticons. All I intended was a colon and a bracket but no, I've got the full emoji. But I'm leaving it for Oliver.

"can i borrow a tenner chick? xx"

[Alf]

A spread of jam or Dairylea would have made all the difference.

I actually find that disgusting, it’s not the kids fault their mother hasn’t paid, a child should always get a meal at school, they should have given them a meal and taken it up with their mother afterwards, that’s cruel and humiliating for the boys

They had got 17.00 of dinners already which equates to about 2 school weeks! They would have been in touch as soon as she went into debt so 2 weeks later she still didn't pay, schools have budgets, if they feed these kids then other parents will want the same and then the school budget comes under pressure for other things, it might seem harsh but thats life

she has caused her kids more embarrassment by taking it the press tbf

If she couldn't afford to pay she should have done a packed lunch but clearly she isnt a good enough mother

Sure they are unlucky that the Mother
has spent all the Cash on something else,
But that mother must pay the £17 debt
she is at fault taking it to the Local newspaper
that then ends up on Worldwide DM feed.


The Debate at 10AM on LBC Radio
