I like it when people write things and use common sense. People are portraying Shuter as the only hope for KS. There are many more people in th UK in need of a job and capable of doing it. She is not the saviour, why are people turning her into the victim.

I quite agree that a supply teacher will only have little knowledge of what was going on.

I myself have worked for many years as a bi-lingual assistant in schools, including Pimlico secondary school and St Georges Secondary school in maida vale and have seen bad and threatening behaviour from students. Nontheless, Westminster would send us on courses such as Pastoral care, counselling, support in mathematics and so on to be able to understand better the childre, which to me made a whole difference when working with the students who didnt master the English language.

I have seen students threatening students, teachers, and even me, but this never stopped me from dedicating myself to my profession, on the contrary it made me more determined to want to help the students, in comparison to what I have seen in these schools, one where the head master was killed by a student, the only time I ever heard of anything so bad was now with the Spanish teacher who was killed in Leeds.

Yes KS has had their fair share of bullies, but nothing that Mr Lewis, Rabbi Bruce, Ms Shutz, Ms Carmel Brown, Mr Atkins, Schneider couldnt deal with. A school will always have the good, the bad, the naughty, the bullies, the nerds, the populars, the invisible kids. Tell one school that there isnt a child like that?

Even at QK do you all actually believe that all students are saints? All students are A* students? Come on.

Many times Shuter would praise the A* STUDENTS, neglecting the other ones, and this information came from students.

The fact that she spoke to the year 11 to explain herself, and came up with the most stupid excuses is completely WRONG.

People need to be punished for their mistakes, even if they may have done good things to cover up the bad.

The school dealt with bullies when Mr Lewis was in charge?  Where did you get that information from?  Speak to parents, one of whom i know personally, and ask them how the school addressed bullying. In a few words - they didn't.   Parents have removed their children from the school during the previous headship, due to zero action.
