Speak to the parents

It is very unsettling one of my friends had that happen quite regularly but it was a football being kicked repeatedly at the side of her house,despite their being a park very close by, it drive her bonkers, made no difference at all speaking to the parents, in the end she moved to a quieter area, no probs now she’s much happier

The worst behaviour I ever witnessed was a class of school children having a swimming lesson , which my heart group had to walk past to get to our pool . As the first large elderly lady passed them they all howled and yipped like dogs ,and not one teacher or pool assistant said a word . I was mortified for her . Health benefit or not , I never went back to continue my rehab course .

That is shocking. Why don't teachers say anything nowadays? I've seen mayhem at supervised trips to the theatre while teachers sit apart from the pupils and do nothing.
A friend of mine rang her local school after witnessing pupils on an outing with a teacher take up all the seats on the bus including the priority seats while very elderly people stood. Again the teacher did nothing.

The teachers cannot see what the problen is, it is how their children behave.

As a retired teacher, I know that a teacher who would allow that kind of behavior is a teacher who is unable to effectively control their class. A teacher like that has no business taking a class on a trip outside of school!

As an ex-teacher myself I agree. Unfortunately, such teachers do exist these days and in my final years working was laughed at by them for being so strict. Disciplining children was never taught when I trained you picked it up from the other older members of staff and soon learned to control a class.
Those teachers that laughed at me will now be the older members of staff so will not be setting a good example to the younger ones.

Yummy, I was the same. I had a good relationship with my young students, but I didn’t try to be their fun friend. That’s one of the issues I’ve seen with younger teachers. A teacher needs to have control or teaching and learning doesn’t take place.

I had a child about 10 trying to buy cigarettes, when I refused she went and got her Dad who had a go because he had been. watching Football. With a Smug look "that told you" on her face she walked out the door and stuck two fingers up

I'd have said, "Well you buy her bl%%dy fags for her, then!!"
