Father of 'terrorist house' error youngster demands apology from Accrington school (From Lancashire Telegraph)

[DaveinGermany]

Oh no! Not more poor victimised Alis' Snackbar followers!

I detect a whiff of compo in the air.

Apology my arse, Graham Jones needs his head testing. he certainly dont represent me.

[lancsdave]

Damned if they do and damned if they don't.

The issue was also about his Uncle beating him, something his father says doesn't happen and he is being creative. Strange thing to put for creativity !!

How often do we see social services ignoring that stuff which leads to a childs death, then everybody is complaining how bad the authorities are.

Looks like our MP commented without knowing the whole story. The news has been a little creative as well by the look of it. I'd rather they made lots of mistakes and caught one terrorist than ignore the signs and catch none

[cashman]

Aye maybe but Labour aren't gonna risk upsetting the applecart, they are now completely useless sadly.

Me too Neil, me too.

This father feels indignant about the reaction this caused, but he should realise that we live in times where things go on in homes which put the rest of us in danger....the Muslim father included.
He should be thankful that it was investigated.......as for him not sleeping, his wife not sleeping, his son not sleeping........I am kept awake by worries that we do not investigate anywhere near enough....that we let just anyone into the country without checking to see if they mean us harm, and that those who are proved to mean us harm cannot be deported because of their human rights.
What about my human right to live peacefully? I guess that human right can be ignored eh!

One question for you guys...

Do you think the response would have been the same if the child in question had been called Ralph or Tiffany?

I suppose it would depend on whether the child said they did not like being beaten by their uncle.
Beaten with a stick or beaten at Ludo.....in he light os past and current events I guess it pays to take no chances.

Strange isn't it..how many of us old gits have, over the years, banged on about corporal punishment never doing us any harm..yet this appears to be the bone of contention here.

The child writes that he hates it when his uncle beats him...

Teachers are trained in safeguarding children..they know the 'indicators' of physical abuse....fear of adults, withdrawal, unexplained bruising etc..etc..

They should also be aware of any changes in behaviour of the child in question....the fact that the police and LCC safeguarding both state that there is nothing to answer to here shows poor judgement by someone....

Considering that the teacher probably has to report this (to cover his/her backside from ofsted box tickers), my money is on the fresh from university social workers at LCC safeguarding overreacting on a slow day

[Margaret Pilkington]

I am one of those old birds(I believe gits are chaps) who got the back of a hand from time to time.....I did not consider it a beating...and when i look back on what we as a family of seven children got up to...it is to my astonishment that my parents managed to raise us without flaying us alive( something with which we were frequently threatened).
I have to say that in ALL cases...we got what we deserved. We were warned and let the warnings go unheeded. We did all the things we were told not to.

None of us grew up to be damaged, all of us have made upstanding citizens(though one of our lads sailed mighty close to the wind at times).
Rather than calling it corporal punishment I prefer the term 'tough love'.

[Rowlf]

I got slapped at home but always warned first if I did something again what would happen but me being me took no notice and got the punishment. I got a few slaps on my backside at school too from Mr Gleaves. Non of it did me any harm. I agree in todays climate teachers and others have to be on the lookout for signs and I would rather they reported stuff and were wrong than ignore things that could lead to something serious.
What struck me was the writing and spelling which looked more like a 6 yr old had written it than an older child.

[Barrie Yates]

Looks as though his command of the English Language is sadly lacking - not enough effort put into the 3 Rs? Could that be the child's lack of ability or the teaching quality/methods?
In my experience of working with 3rd world workers for some 20 years or so, in general they do not seem to have too much trouble in speaking basic English whilst I had great difficulty in picking up very basic ME and Eastern languages - and I got kicked out of French after the third year.

[cashman]

After pondering on this, to me its the ruddy dad that should be apologising not the school, the kid may well have meant a terrorist house in his mind,if as he says his uncle [who he lived with] beat him.? Our M.P. is failing badly by his response in this,as far as i'm concerned.

[accyman]

the first time this story was published online by the local rag it only mentioned that the word terrorist was used instead of terraced with no mention of beatings or anything else what so ever

at that point anyone in their right mind would think the teacher was a complete moron for not asking the child before calling in authorities about what was at the time a spelling mistake

thats the thing with our local rag it prints half a story then adds bits later

their headline actually said something like police called in over schoolboys spelling mistake indicating this was the concern not any beatings

to give you an indication on how bad things are at our local rag one of them was on hyndburn chat asking if it was ok to contact someone about running a story because they found a bag of dog poop left on top of a bin

i dont know when graham jones released his comment but it may have been before more information was available
