Email from a parent to our admin assistant:
“Hi Admin Assistant,
Can you please let Ms R know that N will hand in her homework on Monday as she received it a few days late so hasn't had time to complete it. N wanted me to make sure that Ms R knew!”
The homework went out late because I was off sick on Monday, and then the photocopier was kaput on Tuesday. In light of this, I put a note on the front of everyone’s homework saying that because it was two days late going home, they could have until Monday to hand it in.
And parents wonder why their kids don’t seem to read as well as they could.
