Well not quite but soon my name will be written in mud alongside Christine's at The Boy's school. I am about to become a difficult parent. As we speak Him Indoors is checking a letter I have drafted, addressed to the Head and copied to a local Councillor, which lists some of the Head's shortcomings. Up to now I had avoided confrontation and only kept my rants for the School Mums' chats. I was worried The Boy may be embarrassed. No more. I feel that if my chid prefers to spend 2 days stuck behind a desk in my office to going to school, there is not much I can do to make things worse for him. But I will not stop there, next there will be the parents' evening where is teacher will get a piece of my mind (I will go equiped). And once I have placated the school the world had better watch out !
Heads will roll...

We get a side comment from the Head when all 4 of us turn up on parents evening (2 parents + 2 step parents). I would have thought he would be pleased to see a united front, seems not. |

Daisy / Website (14.10.04 13:56) A school (or head) that is not big on involved parents is worrying. Do many of the other parents feel the same way? |

(15.10.04 14:02) Quite a few which is quite worrying. Parents evening was interesting. |
