[quote=blazey;604113]

When a student isn't in school, even if they should be in school or not, a teacher should not have any right to approach a child and harass them. How is the general public meant to ascertain whether that adult hassling the child is indeed their teacher? It puts the shopkeeper in an awkward position.

Imagine if it had been someone like Ian Huntley entering the sandwich shop, and being a trustworthy figure to the child, the child left willingly with him to school, only to be driven away in a car to a remote place to be beaten, raped and murdered? How would that shop keeper feel if they KNEW they had just watched someone enter the shop, approach the child and not said a word?

Surely this just re-inforces the need for children to be where they are meant to be??????

And with the greatest if respect, who do you think would be the first people that the shop keeper would ring if these children had been misbahving. The school of course. Therefore, the owner should back the school 100%

I think in this case I'ts up your nose or on your bloody nerves.
I still think the teacher was right and still await the response from the Headmaster if anyone has the balls to ring him...cost too much from Spain.

Suggesting that someone should be thrown off the debating team because of their views on the subject.

That if anything confirms that if some people do not conform to the majority view, then they shouldn’t make them.

Interesting! Very, very interesting!
Keep promising myself, would not come back on this thread, unfortunately I am weak :(

Sightly out of context Jambutty . (and you know it :p) Not against Blazey disagreeing at all .. or you. Just the etiquette of debate (and yes, still regard this as a debate) ... did object to her calling us with opposing views 'the rabble' that was all, not cricket, old boy.

Could that be because I don’t stick my oar into every topic?

Only those that I know what I’m talking about.

No one is arguing whether a child should be in school or not. We all agree that children of school age should be in school during school hours. But that isn’t the issue.

However it is comforting to know that you KNOW what the shopkeeper would do if school children misbehaved in her shop.

Hmmm! Thrown out of a debate for name calling. Interesting point.

Maybe it should be applied rigorously in this forum?

Just my perimeters Jambutty that's all, and just my own personal standards for discussion, not responsible for the rest of the forum.

Just a comment on 'respect' for other members, which is one of the main keywords here ... LOL.

Re: Don't bug me teacher, eating me breakfast.
 
I wonder what the reaction would be, of those objecting to the teacher's actions, if the children were disappearing out of school after registration and disappearing off into the town for the rest of the day. Would the teacher then have any right to go looking for them? What if a child who should have been in school had an accident whilst absconding and was seriously injured or killed? Would there be complaints against the school for not having chased up where they had disappeared to?

I spent today teaching a group of year 8 children about Native American culture and I am glad I don't do it on a full time basis. Some of the children who should have been there were not there and the teacher sent TAs off to look for them - how far should they have looked? Should they even have looked at all? Should teachers even bother taking a register? Should school attendance be optional?

If we became so lax in attitude those children would get an awful shock when entering the workplace.

It's a forum for discussions and debates,you don't stick your oar into topics you express your opinions.
And i don't always know what i'm talking about but i have my own opinions on subjects and like to express my views and see others.

Native American culture, eh. That's an interest of mine.

And the question of loco parentis is a complex one ... When minors are on the way to school, who is the responsible guardian, the parents or the teacher? Or are they in some kinda "parentis" limbo:confused:

Why don't you phone the school and ask the head teacher that question?

That would be too easy and stop him from trying to prove everybody wrong!
Maybe hes afraid to do so in case he doesn't like the answer!

Which pupil are you blaming? Oh I see, you spent so much time in butty shops, causing the education system to fail you, that you don't know how to use an apostrophe.;);)
