Aisher Smyth might have expected a firm ticking-off for adjusting her school skirt to make it shorter. But the 13-year-old was reduced to tears when her careers adviser said she was making herself ‘look like a slut’.
Aisher says she was stacking chairs in the school dining hall when Virginia Green told her to lengthen her skirt. Mrs Green is then said to have made the ‘slut’ comment before adding that the short skirt was ‘not doing much for your cellulite’. The remark was overheard by staff and pupils at Bohunt School in Liphook, Hampshire.
Aisher’s mother Amanda, 36, said: ‘I couldn’t believe that a
teacher would use such foul and disgusting language to a pupil. ‘It’s
the kind of thing that you might expect another pupil to say but
teachers should know better. It’s tantamount to bullying. ‘Aisher has a
birthmark on her thigh which I think Mrs Green must have mistaken for
cellulite. 'For one of her teachers to make a comment like that about
it was really hurtful and she was very upset.’

The mother-of-three added: ‘Teachers should be giving children confidence for their future lives, not speaking to them in such a despicable way.’ Mrs Green, a member of support staff at the school which specialises in languages, has written to Mrs Smyth apologising for the distress and upset she caused. The 38-year-old teacher said she had been frustrated that Aisher failed to respond to her first request to roll down the skirt’s waistband. She admitted her words were ‘groundless and offensive’.
Denis Foster, a senior teacher at Bohunt, said Mrs Green had not been suspended but would face internal disciplinary procedures. In a letter of apology to Mrs Smyth, he wrote: ‘I find it regrettable that such indiscreet comments were made in earshot of any pupil and can understand why Aisher felt they were aimed at her. ‘I don’t believe they were, but sympathise with Aisher.’
The over -reacted attitude of the teacher was not diginified for the prestige of her post. Short skirts in school uniform are also popular in many countries like Japan, Nepal etc. So a teacher should had to use more decent and self-respettve way to warn her pupil.
