Ed Balls and Baroness Morgan both loudly proclaim that home educated children should be monitored to ensure they have the same 'protection' as children who attend school.
Home educators, who know the truth about safety of children in school versus out of school, have been beating their heads against a brick wall trying to explain to people how false these statements are.
I read today the story of a seven year old girl who was tied up by four boys in school and then whipped with a skipping rope during the lunch break.
I bet the school has one of those completely pointless 'bullying policies' and doesn't believe that they have a bullying problem. Shouldn't break times be supervised? How could this abuse have occurred without being noticed at an early stage?
This alone should be sufficient justification to hold schools up as places where children are at risk rather than places of safety.
The real punchline comes when you read that the parents of the girl were not told what actualy happened, only that she "... had been hurt by some other children".
The dinner lady who had found the child being whipped spoke to the girl's mother and gave the full story is now facing the sack for 'breaching the confidentiality' of the boys who had done the whipping!!!
What sort of crazy mixed up world is this? I think that ALL parents should protest by taking their children out of school and refuse to re enroll them until this whole system is dismantled and rebuilt with the interests of the children foremost.
