Exactly S or even P

Do people think because it was a girl on her period that is ok for her to say I'm on my rag to a teacher? I bet if it was a boy who said to me I need a piss there would be outcries.

No as I do enjoy teaching even if some kids do come out with vulgar remarks.

Year 6 which makes it worse using language like on the rag.

They have a note from parents or doctor if they do have a medical reason.

But if they have a medical problem they would be allowed to go, it's a couple of hours between breaks, not hard for a 10 year old to hold a wee for 2 hours max.

No exactly you go at break or hold it just like I do, and I expect the children to do the same.

I agree they waste their playtime and then need a wee which is not my fault. Read post 93 that is a pure example.

If they have a medical problem I let them go

Just to point out the girl had been in the toilet 2 mins prior so chances are she didn't even need a wee or why would she have not gone? When in a lesson I as the teacher have more important things to worry about than whether a child is desperate for a wee. One other thing is I can face a...

Ok, I don't see why a 9 year old wouldn't be able to wait either. I would have the same rules no matter what year I taught except year 1. Once they get to year 2 or above they should be capable of holding their wee. How many people have told their child to wait on a car journey? What is the...

The girl I mentioned in post 93 did wait all afternoon though despite pleading she was bursting. A child who is bursting cannot wait 2 hours, she did. Too be honest I'm not bothered if she hadn't had been able to wait she had been given ample time. Precisely it always amazes me how many...

Or what happens more often is Hand up, miss can I go to the toilet. Yes Peter Hand up, miss can I go to the toilet. Yes Nichola, and so on.... Easier just to refuse as I said they can hold it. Did you read post 93 that is proof they can wait. What is the difference between me not being...

Sorry I don't understand what you mean?

If I can not get someone to watch the children I have to wait. I don't think non teachers realise how many children fail to go when they get the opputunity. I remember last year before an afternoon long assembly I let all the children go before heading to the hall. 2 minutes later a girl asked...

I have to hold my wee when teaching and deal with my period outside of teaching time. Children in KS2 should be able to do the same.

Well considering her mum didn't complain she was probably not bleeding in her knickers, if she was she should have been more polite, not my problem. Not happened in my class yet and I can't begin to imagine how many times I have said no.

Most children can hold a wee for couple of hours.

Taking into account she used such a derogatory phase I doubt she was menstruating. Unlikely an 10 year old would wet themselves.

They asked I refused and then said they were on the rag. It is up to me, the teacher to decide whether a child goes to the toilet during my lesson.
