For anyone who ever had any doubt’s about claims made on this site about the Coupe’s, I think Jon Bamborough’s post is clear proof……
If you look back at some of the previous posts you will find a catalogue of incidents that show what they will do to stop anyone asking questions.
1 Mrs Coupe described herself as a “Saviour” of Marton after Mrs Lancaster’s long and successful Headship.
2 Mrs Coupe treats anyone who doesn't support her persona of a saviour with contempt, causing staff to go off sick, leave management posts with no job to go to, and put in grievances against Mrs Coupe.
3 Mrs Coupe suspended the teacher who served the first, of many, grievances against her.
4 Mrs Coupe has threatened disciplinary action or police against anyone who doesn’t help her to “Cover up”.
5 Mrs Coupe forcefully locked the staff in the staff room to cause a scandal., which backfired, when two former staff called In to collect personal items.
6 Mr Coupe ensured that Alan Veale was questioned by the police for posting on the website.
7 Mr Coupe tried to report Mr Veale to his Bosses at work for posting on the Website.
8 Mr and Mrs Coupe tried to take action against the policeman who investigated their claims.
9 Mr Coupe has now reported Jon Bamborough to the Standards board!!! Why? Because he listened to concerned parents and asked questions of the School.

This is a catalogue of bullying and intimidation. Perhaps one of the saddest things is that the LEA has allowed this to go on for years unchallenged.

Hello All,
My ownrecent experiences in the school with the coupe person. Irronicallyshe is throwing a sickie!

I wrote 2 letters 9th May , the first was formerly asking coupe for an official explanation regarding the findings Alan shared weeks ago now. The second letter was my asking for an explanation of why i had been asked to leave school. The covering thrase of "concerns of my intentions in school".I also highlighted that the school was obviously not keen to be an open door enviroment , and I askedwhy not?This person also attempts to brow beat in quiet tones of course,by repeating a one liner ofsome sort. I feel she is getting rattled as she physicaly touched me last week to encourage my leaving school. I know this is a form of common assalt and did concider reporting it to the police. Funny realey because it WILL be on the schools cctv as it was directly in front of the office window.

All this week I have been asking for a response to my own concerns and enquires both written and verbal.......yesturday I recieved a letter in the post. It says nothing at all "Thankyou for your two letters dated 9th May 20077. Your comments have been noted"

Now given the contents and enquiries within both letters I find thisresponse a total waste of time and taxpayers money.As I asked for photo copies of both letters and also recieeved by signitures from firstly Mrs Nand and then coupe herself. What further acknowledgement do i need?This female is being decidedly evasive

Even more interestingly is the fact that when I opened the letter I promptly rang the school to ask what was the point to it. That waswhen I discovered the sickie and also that the office staff didnt have knowledge of this letter. I took the letter in to show the office staff and was told that she must have written it herself. Now that does interest me, WHY?What is gained by stalling me.

I have a chld protection conference in a few weeks where the head teacher will be present, I am looking forward to it, as I have many questions to put to her in front of the panel. I know that those on this site have had bitter experienceof this person but i am not aware publicaly if this has happened before. I know from an inside source that there are a high amount of children on the at risk register within Marton.I will not recoil either my comments on here or in school because she fights dirty. my own corner is not without flaws but the level of exploration i am experiencing is 9/10 s on the basis of aletter from coupe. Interestingly she is not in a hurry to give me a copy ,as is my right believe wholheartedly in the truth any truth, good and bad. I have already been made aware that some staff are willing to lie to cover for coupe. The deckof cardsWill come tumbling down before too long I am sure. I dont Knowif this will happen in time for my present involvement with social services.

For obviousreasons i havent shared everything but I have given a fair accout also. I would welcome any feedback on thispost

whatever happens i do wish you well with the social services and hope you manage to get your point across regarding your concerns with your childs time at Marton.
I am sure you are aware that the tactics sometimes employed are used to intimidate and rattle you. Just stay calm, i am sure all will be well.

Thaks Tracey,

my intention is to stay calm where I see fit and where I feel appropriate very much the contary,as is my normasl space as an individual. I recomendfree will and choices. These are healthy yhings to teach children rather than oppression and excessive order.I have wondered if coupe has been diagnosed with OCD as she appears to st6ruggle to coupe with anything else, thereforewe all have to dance tothe beat of her drum. Just one problem with that ,it ainta healthy rythm hense the controvesy around the school and of course the overwhelming evidenceof the amount of current places available at Marton.

This will become a national concern as the silly wusses behind the wrong doings are too tired to keep going but to frightened to stop. Therefore only an outside source can stop this sorry situation. We cant rely on these folk having a concience now can we.........Giselle

Giselle Rosseau How rude can you be? Mrs Coupe was NOT throwing a sicky (as you so immaturely put it), If you bother to ask the office staff you would find she is recovering from a Death in the family. - This is just an example how rude people can be. I hope you intent to apologise for that flippant remark.

David Ross,

Please clarify somthing for me please....... Your firstpost was alittle after 1pm, and directly under/after my post which included my reference to the death of a family member and I used the word condolances.

Then at 1.12pm you posted the above post acusing me of somthing I had already corrected myself.Please read my previous posts for yourself.

I acknolwedge that showing the pants was not the most sensible thing I have ever done .But given the 6 week period from sept to middle of nov where he was soiling his pants in school frequently it was bad enough that this was happening but apparently everyone in reception has no sense of smell. So if you look at the whole picture I am right to have concerns and have already tolerated a very apathetic approach to my son in that enviroment.

I hope you are not edited out as I for one welcome a balanced veiw of things at Marton . I have no more right to negate your experience of the school than youcan mine. All opinion has value and whenever you find opinions squoshed you usually find dodgy goings on.

Was your intentionto say comtempt or did you mean content. Easily done as you well know I am notorious for bad spelling

Miss Giselle Rosseau
