Ever made a teacher cry?

Me and a mate accidentally knocked down about 3 or 4 lockers while inside and they fell on to a French teacher and she got pretty upset. And after spraying detergent into someones eye by mistake a teacher got pretty upset for some reason. I also remember a teacher running out a class and tripping up after the kid next to me almost set fire to a table...:D The school was awful at the time though, it was in special measures for quite some time :D
 
Yes, my girlfriend then, now wife is a teacher :p

On topic in my old school a class (not mine) locked a student teacher in a cupboard and all started kicking/banging the door shouting "cry ***** cry!" She did, then she quit.

Another lad in a class I was in was getting shouted at by a teacher with a lazy eye, after both barrels from her he calmly asked "were you talking to me?" Laughter from kids, teacher on sick.

Another class wrote about a teacher on a board "die X die" she spun the board round saw this and ran out the class crying.

A teacher got a coin bounced off their head, a teacher broke a pupils arm, a pupil was an inch away from stabbing a teacher with a live soldering iron before we restrained him, we had an alcoholic teacher who drank straight vodka from a tango bottle, a teacher with a throat problem who used a throat voice box thing who got called me cyborg and mocked (cyborg conveniently rhymed with his second name) there was a French/Austrian/American teacher on exchange who beat up a pupil...

Plenty more only took me 2mins to think of these. It was a horrific school, god knows how I ended up at uni after this. :p
 
"Ever made a teacher cry?" why would anyone want to do that? you're not right in the head if you did.
 
I am ashamed to say I was part of a group that hospitalized a teacher. We were sniffing Popper's in one if the stores trying to get high, when the head of art walked in. She immediately spotted the small bottle and all our guilty faces, when she asked what it was we all froze. One guy said it was his and that it was to clear his sinuses, cue the teacher grabbing it and taking one almighty sniff. Her eyes rolled into the back of her head and she instantly collapsed. We all just starred at her for a minute, I honestly considered legging it and saying nothing.

We did however get help. The teacher was taken to hospital but released the same day. We for a severe *******ing but because Popper's were not illegal and we were so young webonly got a weeks detention. Could have been so much worse.
 
I didn't personally but the 'queen bee' in my class did to a male supply teacher, asking him personal questions and being a cow, resulting in him walking out in tears.

5 minutes later, Mr Friel (father of Anna), our French teacher, came into the classroom and shouted loudly at the bully who then burst into tears herself, although the supply teacher refused to take our lesson.
 
Although I have never directly made a teacher cry I was party to nearly blinding one. Fortunately the guy firing the 'catapult' couldn't hit a barn door as the projectile hit, and put a dent in, the whiteboard about half an inch to the right of her head.

The only time I was told of a teacher breaking down and nearly crying was in a GCSE history class when several students started to make fun of her severely disabled son.

I was rather fortunate in secondary school as although it was far from the best it seems far better than to some of the others in this thread, about the worse thing that I can remember happening was a kid throwing a chair at the PSE teacher.
 
This thread cements my belief that corporal punishment should be bought back.
During my High School years from 69 to 74 I never heard of one incident where a pupil back chatted a teacher and you would accept your punishment whether you did it or not.
Life was simpler then and 88% of teachers weren't on anti-depressants *

It happened in my school and corporal punishment was around then so I don't really think it will have that much of an effect.

Also, as a parent I have no real desire to hit my child so as a teacher I have no real desire to hit another person's child.
 
Nope, never.

Head Teacher at secondary school was an absolute waste of space (as was the Chair of Governors), but a couple of the deputies/assistants made up for it.

Head Teacher at Primary/Junior school was proper old school - and he'd make you cry. He was absolutely great (as was the Chair of Governors). Would definitely buy him a pint if I saw him now.
Sadly a few years after I left it came out that he hadn't done some things by the book and he resigned :(.
IIRC the most significant thing according to the local rag was that he hadn't done the proper risk assessments for the year6 trip to Holland. Every academic year the year6's along with some extra teachers went to the same place in Holland and did the same thing on each day of the trip as last years year6's did when they went. It all ran with military precision and was great. On the way back the coach would stop at the Hypermarket in france and he'd get his crates of wine to cover him until next year. It turned out he'd only done the risk assessment for the first year. I can't see what the issue was - the trip itinerary was exactly the same every year, but apparently he was meant to re do the risk assessment each year.
The new head teacher is useless.
 
Some of you were really nasty kids :-(
I'm so glad my year group was one of the best, the teachers seemed to like us.
 
Some pupils made one of my pupils have what can probably be described as a breakdown. Poor sod was decent enough but they were merciless.

I even tried to stand up to them, but got a kicking and a year of bullying as a result. :rolleyes:
 
A lot of these stories involve French teachers.

Because our teacher was away sick, my class had to join another french lesson. During this class a group of girls coloured part of a Tampon red, dipped it in water and flung it at the blackboard. The poor bloke burst into tears and ran out.
 
We made our woodwork teacher cry, I was probably one of the more sensible people in my class, but the rest were your typical woodwork lot.

I don't think it helped he was a chronic bull****ter who wore his trousers too high with a ring of keys and walked funny, and had black teeth.

Not a nasty way you understand, but he really didn't help himself.
 
I remember one of my mates hitting a teacher with a textbook, although he never intended to do it.

It was at the time wrestling was the in thing and said mate and another lad had been having an ongoing 'hardcore rules' match for most of the day. We were waiting to go into a classroom that was up the top of a stairwell, through a set of double doors.

The plan was for my mate to hide round the corner and has the other lad came through the doors someone else would cough and he'd slug him with the textbook.

This was all good until the lad in question stepped back to politely allow a teacher through the doors first. She was promptly flattened, and spent a while on the floor recovering. What made it worse was she was one of the nicest people I've ever met and she took the whole thing really well - nobody got in trouble or anything.

These days violence would be met with violence and it wouldn't end well.
 
Once our old RE teacher she was a real bitch who didn't know how to talk to you without talking down to you, well she'd have some family trouble and had only just returned after taking some leave.

She pushed the class so much that we all snapped and took things too far as you do as a cocky 15 year old. She burst into tears and ran out of the room.
