• We had a note from our primary school (which is going to significant lengths to ensure compliance and has had no cases so far to my knowledge) that a member of the public had complained, taken pictures of and threatened to call the police because a group of the school kids were too close to each other in a park after school - identifiable by their uniform.

    Were I the Head, I'd be solely tempted to thank the person for the information, and inform them that I'd forwarded it to the police to lookout for someone taking pictures of kids in parks. Instead, there's now teachers on patrol around the routes to school; seems a pretty senseless use of their time.

    I'm not condoning that the kids were together or their parents for allowing it, but it seemed a slightly sad and petty incident.
