grgrsmth Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 Nobody is "presumed guilty", just not cleared to work with children. Surely being a parent qualifies you to work with children? Ah, but there is. The school can report you to the police as a suspicious loiterer and you will be removed. Nobody messes about when the safety of chlidren is at stake. Remember Baby P?

mikmouse Posted May 11, 2010 Author Share Posted May 11, 2010 Because YOUR child will NOT be the only one there, and the school and the majority of parents prefer their children's safety to come before individual parents' need for attention and drama. Im not there for other children, just mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikmouse Posted May 11, 2010 Author Share Posted May 11, 2010 I think you're wasting your time Cosywolf, trying to argue with the "armchair experts" who think they're right based on their narrow little view, rather than those of us who work IN the system and know the ins and outs. But as soon as there's an incident, they're the first bleating "why weren't safeguards in place" You mean my narrow view of still believing you should be innocent until proved guilty?

Should they be checked too? Where do you draw the line? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dozy Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 Bolshy? A bit. Thick? No. People with a 'nobody's going to tell me what to do' attitude? With my kids, your Damn right fella. My bold If you're not thick, why do you seem to be unable to grasp the simple fact that, despite your intention to spend time only with your daughter, there are going to be other children on the trip and it is for their benefit that the school insists on accompanying parents having a CRB check? I don't want to get into discussions about whether CRB checks are useful or not, because that fairly irrelevant to this particular situation. What is relevant is that the school has rules and you seem unable to accept that they should apply to you. Not annoyed about missing out as i wont be and neither will my daughter. Like i said, we will be attending the day trip and i just hope the school dont embarrass themselves by trying to stop me My bold I fear the only person likely to be embarrassed is your poor daughter, who it seems will end up in the middle of a silly argument between her father and the school. Daddy standing arguing the toss about rules not having to apply to him doesn't exactly set a good example for the child. If you were such a wonderful parent, I'd expect to you to be more concerned about your daughter and how such a scene would affect her, rather than obsessing about how you're not going to let the school tell you what to do!

No, she will see her Daddy standing up for his rights to be on the beach with his daughter and not have to jump through silly hoops to do it.

Doh! a CRB check does just that checks the criminal records, hardly an invasion of privacy unless you have a record in the first place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
