Question

do you think them having job share teachers has somthing to do with this?theyre only 6/7 yr old.they find it very dificult to settle.ive not met a teacher that finds them easy.i do worry they will get left behind as this is affecting their work.

Answer 1

Are you their teacher?  Your school should have procedures to help deal with this, whether the problem lies in the individual children or in the teachers, or in the school environment and organization.

Answer 2

Schools are rarely knowledgable in these areas. They also lack compassion. These children will find their way and will remember that one teacher that was special and understanding to them. I know I did.

Answer 3

Years ago we had a group that went through our elementary school. From kindergarten no one could control them. Every year we watched them move up and nothing changed. We were glad to see them off after they completed 6th grade.

Stability with one very structured teacher and assistant every day would probably help.

Answer 4

The comment about beening glad when they were gone!  You have got to be kidding!  You cash a paycheck every month, that tax payers provide to you.  Some of which are parents, if you aren't able to handle children of all kinds, get a different job.
