Case: Accusations
A student goes home saying that the teacher constantly picks on them, that the teacher hates them and that the teacher never allows them to answer a question. The parent comes in accusing you of picking on their child in front of others and they want the child moved to another classroom. How do you handle this situation?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would arrange that the proper school personnel attend the meeting, and have them assist me in conference. If the parent does not believe me, I would ask the proper school personnel and parent what they would like me to do to prove it to them. I would explain that no other students or parents have come in to discuss this matter with me, and would ask them to present what facts they have to accuse me of this matter. |

Comments: I don't know that asking the parents to "prove it" will be useful. Perhaps they can sit in on a class to see how you handle things. |

Comments: I agree that there should be a meeting. However, if the parent is already unhappy with the teacher it might be more beneficial for the meeting to be with an administrator and parent (not the teacher). I would also have that administrator come into class to do a few observations so they would be able to speak on the teacher's behalf. |

Comments: I think solution is the least useful because it seems the most confrontational. Even though a third part is there, asking the parents for proof and facts is probably not the best approach. |
