It happens often I think. I had a kid in class whose mother was a teacher in the same school. I think they shared a class.
This was a top 10 private school in the UK
Which means it’s likely a US-focussed scenario.
Definitely happens in Ireland. Anywhere populations are small you’re going to face teachers potentially having to teach their own kids at some point.
It happens. I didn’t notice much bias
Yeah way!
You clearly didn’t go to school in a small town, lol. There’s at most one teacher per subject per grade. You can’t just not let the math teacher’s kids take math.
So what did the teachers’ kids do? Some how travel an hour to the next town? Not do 1st grade?
What if it was an hour or more? Do you see how that might be unreasonable?
Where do you live? If I ever have kids I want to move there! This level of investment in education borders on fantasy from my local perspective. Our government can’t even be bothered to hire enough teachers to respect the maximum legal class size, let alone hiring a new teacher for a single student just to avoid having a parent teach their child.
In small towns and/or schools it’s common.
Second this
