Quality parenting fail this mornjng.
Went into school with the youngest Benson, who’s starting sixth form. In a classroom with his whole year 12 tutor group, their parents and the teacher. The teacher is talking about how now they’re in sixth form they have an example to set to the younger ones and that they need to follow the school policy on smart phones and keep them switched off and in bags whilst at school.
Just then… wait for it… you guessed it… my phone rings.
In a panic to silence it, I drop it on the floor while saying ‘sh1t’ a bit too loudly.
Poor Noah looked like he wanted to disown me! 🤦♀️😂
I don’t think I’d last long in school these days!
