Reason for appeal / High turnover of teaching staff.
Posted: Sat Oct 05, 2013 3:14 pm
I am considering review/or appeal in relation to recent 11 plus results. 15 points off pass. The principle strand of this is a high turnover in teaching staff.
My son had four different primary school teachers last year. We are exploring the reason for this and suspect that at least one failed probation, and another the product of a very challenging class. This element I intend to explore further as politely as I can.
I would like to think most people would consider four teachers in one primary school year to be highly unusual and potentially very disruptive. We have been made aware by a member of teaching staff and a third party that there have been gaps in teaching caused by this turnover. My call for assistance is as follows: Is anyone aware of any material, research or president that would support the argument that having four teachers in one year is likely to have impacted performance?
This is my first ever post on a forum (yes now is the time for me to learn), and I can't seem to find the answer elsewhere.
I am proud of what he has achieved, but don't believe he has been given the opportunity to fulfil his potential.
Very grateful to anyone even reading this. Thanks.
