Why is a teacher doing something wrong by trying to prevent truancy?Originally posted by MarillionFan View PostHaving had a new head teacher in place at my kids school who has had the audacity before the holidays to send out a letter saying that it is illegal to take your children out of school outside holiday times and that they would not OK any requests
You realise term starts 1 day later than you think it does? No rule says terms always start on Monday! The teachers start work one day earlier than the kids, just as you are requesting.now being informed by Mrs MF that on the first day of the new term the teachers are taking an Inset day!!!! Take it on the Friday you lazy workshy good for nothing's!!!!
