Hello i'm seeking advice about support issues at my (private) school which refuses to give their foreign language teachers (FLT) in-class support.
The school management has told all homeroom teachers to leave the classrooms once the FLT enters for their lesson. This includes kindergarten classrooms.
Recently there was an issue when an FLT was left alone with a kindergarten class (some of the children were still eating lunch) and made a complaint which led to being told firmly that 'Thai teachers do not help foreign teachers'.
I am very worried about the health and safety issues within this context for both students and teachers. Surely the homeroom teachers should stay with their class, monitoring and assisting when needed. In my previous schools there was always one homeroom teacher and one assistant with younger learners. I would like to know if, legally, there should be at least one or two homeroom teachers in the classroom at all times. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
