Exclusive A member of staff at a school near Cleethorpes has been suspended on full pay for more than two months for briefly commenting on the behaviour of pupils on Facebook. The 35-year-old woman, Mrs M, who worked as a cover supervisor at Humberston Comprehensive School close to the Lincolnshire seaside town, is currently awaiting the result of an investigatory hearing, which could lead to her dismissal. Mrs M made the comments on March 20 in a Facebook conversation with one of the school's teachers, who had complained about the behaviour of a year eight class. The cover supervisor, who is not a fully qualified teacher, wrote: "And by the way 8g1 are just as bad as 8g2, and that's how I finished my day today LOL." It's unknown how the conversation came to the notice of school authorities, but Mrs M received notice on April 2 that she was suspended from duty "potentially bringing the school into disrepute" because of it. The investigatory hearing was held two weeks ago.
