Just wondered if anyone had experienced that after the conviction bit did any fathers ask to go to parents evening and sports days also school plays.

My partner is not allowed to attend school and I respect that decision. There is nothing that says he cannot go, he poses no danger to anyone and it's difficult for our kids. It's about the school safeguarding everyone, they agree he poses no danger but the very fact he is on the sor mean people could cause issues if they knew. I agree with school, If you allow one person on sor you may have to allow other and they just cannot take any risks or risk the school's reputation in any way. It's a discussion you would need to have with your school.

Thank you Maria I also agree too but I don’t think he is going to like it as he is such denial. But those children need to be safe . Xx

My partner was not charged - he was officially given "no further action", but he's made the decision not to go near school. He's too paranoid to go, since the police and social services both made school aware of the situation and, even though it's gone no further, he feels he'd make things difficult by going. Xx

We had a meeting with probation, the SOR risk officer and school last week, we've come to the conclusion that it's better for my husband not to attend school events & parents evenings as it's likely to result in negative feedback from other parents for us and the school. I will be attending on my own going forward.
