Bully making fun of a speech impairment

I don't know if it's a teacher or a friend in class but to make fun of a childs speech impairment is wrong. That the child would come home and ask if there is something that can make it go away. I'm heartbroken to think a school of this caliber would have bully.

Too much

Keeping children behind a grade for not being able to read correctly at grade 1 the school should rather give them more help and less homework. I have never heard of a primary school giving children from grade 1 homework and exams I do feel they pressure kids to much how many children at age 7 8 9 develop stress disorders or sleep disorders because of all the pressure

Memorable school

Yes there are bullies and yes there are teachers that is not great, but you will find that types at every school. It just depends on where your child fits in the most.

Back when I was a student in this school... I remember that I easily made friends, I had friendly teachers and I fitted right in.

This is where i found my passion for sports and I made my way to provincial levels while being at this school.

I made memories there that I will treasure forever.

Teacher Bullies Child.

My son was emotionally bullied by his teacher to such an extent that he became scared of everything. He was constantly accused of being a bully, even though he came home with the scars and bruises.

I spoke to other parents who experienced the same behaviour by this teacher, but they did not get any response from the SMT of the school.

When I wanted to clarify the issue, the teacher was rude and accused me of all kinds of "bad parenting". I am STILL waiting for an appointment with the principal to discuss this matter. It is now 6 months later.

I removed my child from this school, and he is THRIVING!
