You clearly didn’t go to school in a small town, lol. There’s at most one teacher per subject per grade. You can’t just not let the math teacher’s kids take math.
Where do you live? If I ever have kids I want to move there! This level of investment in education borders on fantasy from my local perspective. Our government can’t even be bothered to hire enough teachers to respect the maximum legal class size, let alone hiring a new teacher for a single student just to avoid having a parent teach their child.
In what kind of Banana republic is that even allowed?
Some people’s parents are teachers?
Edit: apologies, this was supposed to be sarcasm
Sure. They can even be on the same school as their children. They just can’t teach their own children, as they would clearly be biased.
It happens. I didn’t notice much bias
It happens often I think. I had a kid in class whose mother was a teacher in the same school. I think they shared a class.
This should not happen anywhere with an education system that has any standards.
This was a top 10 private school in the UK
That actually makes sense, those things are rife with nepotism.
Which means it’s likely a US-focussed scenario.
Definitely happens in Ireland. Anywhere populations are small you’re going to face teachers potentially having to teach their own kids at some point.
In small towns and/or schools it’s common.
Second this

Literally went to school in village with fewer than 900 inhabitants.
So what did the teachers’ kids do? Some how travel an hour to the next town? Not do 1st grade?
Yes, they had to go to school in the next village, 10 minutes away.
What if it was an hour or more? Do you see how that might be unreasonable?
A villiage one hour away from any other villiage with a school? Well, hypotetically I’d say the school has to hire another teacher.

Went to school in Germany.
