Children can join a nursery class at school from the term after they turn three, external, and about one in four children are not toilet trained when they start in Wales and England, according to recent figures. One union leader said they had heard anecdotes of children as old as eight not being fully toilet trained and missing lessons as a result. "We have members telling us that children as old as seven and eight, who have no additional learning needs or medical conditions, are struggling with toileting.
Education bosses said there had been an increase in school-age children not being able to use the bathroom independently
Grandfather Gavin Wise said the policy was "unfair".
"If the kid's in school, that's what they're there for, to be looked after.
If they employed someone else to come in and do that for them, it shouldn't be a problem. I'd say it's part of the job."
NO, it bloody well isn't!!!!!!!!!!! They are educators, not bum wipers.
