Gossip: School head Debbie Johnson was one of four teachers who allegedly posted rude comments about pupils on Facebook
Two teachers who branded their pupils ‘thick and inbred’ on Facebook have quit their jobs after parents expressed outrage, it was revealed today.
Former head Debbie Johnson and teacher Nyanza Roberts left Westcott Primary School following an investigation, Hull City Council confirmed.
Mary Wallace, the chair of governors, said in a letter to parents, that the two had ‘decided to relinquish their posts’.
Print-outs of the Facebook comments were posted on fencing near the primary School and word quickly spread among the 250 pupils.
One said: ‘No wonder everyone is thick… inbreeding must damage brain development.’
Another referred to seeing pupils queuing in a discount store.
The online exchange, allegedly between teachers at the school, prompted anger among parents.
In a letter to parents, Ms Wallace said: ‘Further to my last letter in which I promised to keep you updated with any developments at the school I write to inform you the investigation into the Facebook matter which affected a number of staff within the school has now been concluded. The details will remain confidential for legal reasons.

‘However, I am able to inform you Ms Johnson and Miss Roberts have decided to relinquish their posts at Westcott Primary School from December 2011 and will pursue other opportunities.
‘For the other members of staff involved in this matter, this has now been concluded under the school’s disciplinary procedure. Again, no details can be given for legal reasons.
Teachers mocked the fact that pupils and their families shopped in budget retail stores such as Poundland
‘I can assure you that the children’s education and welfare continue to lie at the heart of everything we do and the school is running smoothly under the leadership of Mr Roe, the deputy headteacher who will take over as acting headteacher until a new headteacher is recruited.
‘All classes are being covered by qualified teaching staff and everyone is working hard to ensure that the children’s education and well-being are not affected in any way.’
The Facebook conversation is said to
have taken place on a Saturday, when the school was closed, and begins
with teacher Stuart Clark writing that he is ‘fed up of bumping into
children in town’.
Later
Nyanza Roberts makes a reference to an area of the town and adds: ‘No
wonder everyone is thick… inbreeding must damage brain development.’
Head Debbie Johnson responds: ‘You’re really on one today mrs…!!Xx’
Miss Roberts replies: ‘Haha I’m actually in a good mood!! If anyone reading this is offended, then get a grip!!’
Another teacher, Jane Johnson, then interjects: ‘Massive queue of Westcott year 5/6 kids in poundland!X’
Parents
were furious. Emma Bywood, 30, who has two children at the school,
said: ‘My son came home on Monday and I had to explain to him what
inbred meant.
‘I’m
fuming. If he wasn’t in Year 6, I would be taking him out of the school.
But he is starting his Sats exams after Christmas.’
Beckie White, 33, who has a
nine-year-old daughter at the school, said: ‘I know it’s Facebook and
it’s out of school hours, but they have a responsibility.
‘They
know these things might be seen by people and, of course, parents will
be hacked off. There should at least be an apology.’
Another
mother commented: ‘I’m disgusted and disappointed. I feel let down by
the people who are supposed to be role models for our children.
‘I have lost confidence and respect for the teachers at the school. I have doubts about keeping my child at the school.’
Miss Johnson earlier insisted the comments had been taken ‘out of context’ and implied they did not refer to the children.
A council spokeswoman said: ‘We are continuing to support the school and will now focus on moving forward to ensure that children get the best possible standards of education. For legal reasons we are not able to go into any more detail.’

Uh, why is your 6 and 9 year old child on Facebook? It has a minimum age of 14. How did these students see this?
Erm, if you read the article- they found out because somebody put print outs of the comments on the school gates. Guess the pupils and parents are not that thick, they can obviously read. Guess the teachers under-estimated them…. and then some. Infact, its kind of ironic, because the only ones that look stupid now, are the teachers.

t’s nice to know the utter contempt some teachers have for their pupils and the parents when you’re dropping them at the school gate each morning. What a strange career choice teaching is if you’re a nasty, spiteful, immature piece of work. – pinkcat, hampshire, 24/12/2011 10:37 Have you tried it dear? Thought not. First of all you need to work really hard to get a degree, have you got one?

Anyone who tells the truth these days gets persecuted….. Notice it said teachers in the headline… The investigation was not about what the teachers said was true or not, it was probably the fact that they were telling the truth!!
Report abuse
Thick parents who have completely gone over the top about this. Parent power gone mad.

And STILL the DfE go soft upon mandatory guidelines to all schools re: social networking sites. The staff in question were wreckless and irresponsible and would’ve had to go in any case for bringing their school so evidently into disrepute. Have to say that the photographed parents don’t do their cause any justice given their appearance-hard fierce!

Unwise to express but what did the teachers say that wasn’t true?

Typical female Primary School Teachers, this job attracts sadists.
