I WRITE in connection of your story in The Northern Echo (Feb 1) in which you report that the head teacher of Skerne Park Academy, in Darlington, has received hate mail after asking parents not to do the school run in pyjamas.
Such abuse can only come from the low life in the area and from the ignorance of some parents.
Kate Chisholm, the head teacher, was only doing what like-minded parents want – to see children brought up in a correct and respectful manner.
And to have a parent ‘take a swing’ at her is a disgrace. The person that did this should be locked up.
How can anyone resort to the names she has been called, a ‘fat supermodel and a prostitute’? This name-calling just endorses my view that only the low life of the area are concerned.
The type of parent who calls a head teacher names is a parent whose children have no future.
With that kind of attitude they will end up claiming benefits and being a drag on society.
It is a good thing that a person like Ms’ Chisholm is the head teacher of such an outstanding school and we should all congratulate her on her stand for common decency.
John Merry, Darlington
