Nope.. I know a couple of drama teachers who preferred to be on first name terms with students. It's a case of being professional.

No.
No, not at all, at my school, sometimes the head teacher forgets in assembly and calls teachers by the first name to come up and talk! You will be fine :smile:

OK but???

And in other news, a school headteacher has decreed it common law for all teachers to be refused the right to a first name, when coming into the profession they must now surrender their first name. Any utterances of their first name to anyone will result in 43 years' hard labour.


Sorry I am so completely baffled you thought this could be illegal???
can't believe they're still walking free tbh

The Ofsted Taskforce have been dispatched to deal with them. They're going down for a long time. The travesty!
Unacceptable. You have to sue him! :facepalm:
:rofl:

Teachers must never reveal their first names to students. Punishable by imprisonment.

@Ethereal World I think OP requires legal assistance, a teacher has obviously grossly overstepped the line here. :noway:

I don't think the Ofsted Taskforce is enough. We need more. We need to bring Gove back!

Bring Gove and the Armed Response Unit back, to the scene of the crime. Gove should get the first punch in, for sure. Alternatively, a whack around the head with a briefcase? :dontknow:
