Councillor warned by police about helping parents who complained about school

1. Reminds me of that joke….

   I asked my friend from North Korea how life is. He said he can’t complain.

2. This is a bit of a bizarre story, but let me tell you that there are some batshit people out there who have nothing better to do but make vexatious complaints to schools, wasting everybody’s time and very limited school resources.

   On the surface of it, I think this story sounds as ridiculous as anyone else, but also working in this area, I know how vile and persistent people can be. If parents had legitimate concerns, they could have made appropriate appeal through to Ofsted and DfE, but based on the fact that the parents had been banned from the premises and parents’ evening, I suspect more is going on here than just ‘oppression by a police state’.

3. Easier than chasing real criminals I suppose. Usually that would be a sarcastic joke.

4. Yeah, something tells me we are getting half a story, here.  

5. This is what happens when you have a government of middle managers headed by a priggish, authoritarian mannequin
