also my daughter has told me that about 12 teachers have just left, and in her words her best teachers why is this and does anyone know what is going on because this is a big concern to me.

Hi Carbonara My daughters tutor group has supply teachers has done for the past 3 weeks so that is not an option, but yes her head of year is lovely and really efficient(but they have classes to teach as well as deal with parent/pupil issues) so hopefully she will be able to let me know what is going on. Might I add that I left a message with the office not with head of year directly but will do tomorrow. tomk what are you talking about?

I don't think the teachers are off school due to being ill as it's not just a couple of weeks my daughter has had supply teachers it's been a while now hence why I'm so concerned. I would like to know if the teachers have left or are on say maternity leave but I have had no letter to inform me, and if the teachers have left how much longer until the positions are filled permanently. If any parents of students can shed some light on this I would be very grateful. I will as Saffron has suggested write a letter if I am not able to get hold of the appropriate person to speak with.

I have rang the school office but no one has got back to me which is why I was wondering if any other parents were experiencing similar issues. I totally agree with you that a child's education is a partnership between school and home.

I am a parent of a year 9 student and am very concerned about the amount of supply teachers my daughter has teaching her at the moment especially in english and science. She has not been getting much homework from them, and the homework that she is getting is of a lower standard than usual. Have any other parents of Kingsdale students been experiencing similar issues.
