Thank you all so much for your replies. This particular parent is extremely difficult and irrational. She was banned from the playground at her previous school!! Anyway, we are trying to move forward without promising anything we aren't prepared to do. It's been a very tricky term! Thanks again, Green hippo xxx

Thank you for your reply. I have tried to talk to the parents but she has dramatically overreacted and won't accept any explanation. We work within ratio 1:13 which I personally don't think is right but that's the ratios we're given. We cannot be next to the children all the time but taking away resources is not the answer. Thanks again Green hippo

Thank you for your reply. It has massively kicked-off today. Probably the toughest day of my teaching career. Could I just ask what scissors you use. We have normal school safety scissors but are considering whether we should have the plastic ones with metal blades inside? Thanks x

Hi all, Hope you are all well and coping with the recent lockdown. I'm in a school nursery 3-4yos. Today, for the first time in many years we had a hair cutting incident - not drastic, thank goodness but, of course, the child of the trickiest parent in the class!!! I feel a bit stupid asking this, but does everyone else have scissors available in their workshop area for children to access without always having direct supervision from an adult - e.g. adult in room but not necessarily next to scissors at all times? Of course, we've had the usual questions - why weren't they supervised? Why have they got scissors? etc - starts me seconding something we've done for years! Thanks in advance Green Hippo x
