I agree with both RDF and Paul - excellent news and I'm really glad that your tenacity (and your con's bravery to stand up and be counted) paid off. In the long-run, everyone should benefit - even the ring-leaders!!

Progress report; Monday
One girl has been suspended from class due to her Facebook comment, and will be interviewed on Tuesday.
The Head of Faculty and Learning Services are spending Tuesday interviewing everyone following on from Friday's initial inquiries.

Learning Services took over, initially suspended one, disciplined another.
DS went in on friday and had a great day with everyone being cooperative and pleasant.
If there is any recurrence then L S will go back in, call in parents. kick
kids out. They are also going to take the tutors to task for not dealing with it months ago when they were alerted to problems. etc

Such brilliant news ! Great that Learning Services have acted so quickly and taken positive action for your ds- hope it continues so he can enjoy and do well on his course. This will also help future students who are victims of nasty kids in this college in the future, because the tutors now know that leaving things and letting the idiots disrupt classes is just not acceptable and they should be much more aware !
Well done for biting the bullet and getting stuck in and helping your ds

Well done to your DS and well done to you for supporting him too.

I was all for him packing up and moving on - how wrong could I be? It takes brave people like him to change the world, I take my hat off to him and to you too.
