School accidentally shows pupils porn instead of Paddington Bear

Croft Academy is yet to formally apologise to parents.

A primary school in Walsall has accidentally shown nine and 10-year-old pupils pornographic images, much to the shock and anger of parents.

Croft Academy was screening a Paddington Bear movie for the class during "Golden Time" (essentially free time for the schoolchildren). But a "failure in the filters" allowed a pornography pop-up to be viewed by the children. The movie was being streamed by the teacher.

Parents were later sent a letter by the school, which was obtained by Express and Star. Principal Mark Davis addressed parents and said the school was investigating how the footage appeared on screen. "School has strict measures in place to prevent such images from appearing," Davis told parents in his letter.

One parent said they were disgusted by the glitch. "Parents are annoyed that we were made aware by giving a letter to the Year Five students, who can read, so it is not only wrong to see it but they have to repeat it," the unnamed parent said according to Express and Star.

"We asked a member of staff if they had even watched the film beforehand and they had not. You do not expect to have it in a school, you try your best to prevent it at home. Some children take it with a pinch of salt but other kids are traumatised."

The school has since released a press release on its website. "On Friday 25th January a member of staff was attempting to show an extract from the movie Paddington to children in year 5 when a deeply inappropriate pornographic pop up image appeared on the screen," the statement reads.

"The school has web content filtering software designed to stop incidents such as this and at present it is unclear why it failed to work on this occasion. Neither the school nor the academy trust will be making any further comment whilst investigations are ongoing."

The school is yet to apologise to parents for the mistake.

Traumatized? :dead: This world is just too sensitive now. It's just porn, whatever.

 

So you would show porn to 9 year old kids?

Some people really have strange reactions sometimes :confused:

When I was in 5th grade they showed the whole school some movie on VHS and someone must have taped over porn because every so often it would cut to porn; happened a few times before they shut it. They kids would scream and laugh each time. I guess word got to the parents because my mother asked me what I saw and I said I wasn't paying attention to it, so she yelled at me for not paying attention lol.

It was an accident. Jeez. Nobody died. 

Seriously, what kind of teacher shows streaming movies to their kids? And especially movies that they obviously didn't review before. It sounds very lazy and dumb to me. And it's not the first time I hear about that, last time the teacher started the movie and left the room and came back later to realize that it was porn. Does that sound like normal behavior for a teacher? :lmao:

I know no one died, but teachers are supposed to be responsible and this one had no excuse for his laziness.

Did you even read the article? It clearly says there was a porn pop up. That was an accident and not the teacher's fault.

AND the teacher and school sent a letter to all the parents to let them know about the incident and apparently parents are also mad about that because the children had to read the word "porn" :rolleyes:

Breeders are the WORST

:rotfl: Kids are pretty clever with computers, so I wouldn't be surprised if they've seen far worse than that.

Put it this way, If I had access to the internet at that age (as they do now), I definitely would've been googling for "willies" on a regular basis. :lmao:
