Sadly it appears that Isambard Community School isn't the only school in this country adhering to Nanny's mantra that "all adults are child predators, unless they can prove otherwise".
Step forward Lea Valley High School in Enfield (a specialist sports college), which has banned parents from coming to watch their kids play....ermmm......sports.
For why?
According to the Mail the school cites "child protection policies".
There are of course no such rules in existence that ban parents from coming to watch their kids play sport, the school is making it up as it goes along.
Laura Hunt, the director of physical education at the school, wrote to parents and said:
“We appreciate that parents/carers may wish to come along and watch and support their children.Complete and utter bollocks, it sends a terrible message to the kids namely that all adults are predators and cannot be trusted.
However, as a school staff, we have a duty of care to our students and have to ensure that appropriate safeguarding and children protection policies are adopted, implemented and monitored.
As such, for our students’ safekeeping, we must state that we cannot permit parents/carers or other adults on site at these times, and hope that you will understand and support us in this decision."
What kind of world is Nanny creating here?
We did not ask for this, we do not approve of it; yet it is being foisted upon us by bureaucrats and zealots!

I watched on the state's broadcaster last night, Question Time: a Liberal Democrat pBaroness had a rant on the show justifying such idiotic policies. Her views, in my opinion, were neither liberal nor democratic.

ReplyDeleteSadly the recent case of April Jones will add to their power since the, alleged, kidnapper was none other than a local parent; "proof" that you cannot even trust the parents of your own childrens friends.
