More parents are using social media to bully teachers

Parents bullying teachers online through social media is getting out of control. 

It’s becoming such a problem that one Melbourne school has taken legal action.

3AW Morning’s host Tony Jones spoke with the Principal of Berwick Lodge Primary School, Henry Gossak.

Henry tells his teachers to – ‘Remain professional and calm about it’ – 

‘For whatever reason the schools communication methods aren’t up to scratch and people can get very frustrated’.

Tony also believes parents resort to the internet due to ‘not enough time allocated’ during parent teacher interviews.
