I would go talk to the principal or whoever is in charge. That’s absolutely ridiculous and he has no reason to lie about something like that. Depending on how they handle the situation, I would enroll him somewhere else.
Have you talked to the school? I’d start there???

It’s unusual not to get a letter if a child gets a head injury. I’d investigate how it happened and why you weren’t given a bumped head letter (kid should also be wearing a stamp or sticker). A teacher often makes a kid cry or scream. Think of all the times you’ve been “unreasonable”…when you wouldn’t let them eat mud, because you gave them the wrong cookie, you made them wear wellies in the rain etc. Ask him what they did before approaching the preschool.

He’s 3. They learn a lot from other kids and if it’s his first time I would t doubt he’s picking up on things fast. I suggest getting some footage to back him up. Not saying he’s lying but I have 5 kids and they stretch the truth a bit at times. Look into it or talk to the teacher.

Immediately call the police! Take him to the Dr to get a report! Call the director of the Center and report the teacher! Children don’t lie about this kind of stuff! Protect your child!

Do they have cameras in the classrooms? You can express your concerns to the director and request a viewing of a topical day in his classroom. If there is camaras you show have access to them through your phone there maybe a small charge for it but well worth it. If not of this helps call child care licensing and file a report they will be required to come out and investigate. Just document everything injury and any communication you have with the staff at the school.
Wow, police and principal asap

Head injuries should mean a call from nursery and a letter sent home. Accident reports should be filed at nursery
Id be curious to know why they didn’t contact you at the time and if they have done the relevant paper work .
Contact the nursery head and ask her to investigate. Ask your child to show you exactly what has happened. Contact police for advice …they have specially trained officers to deal with these situations…take pics of injuries and record what your child tells you…remove your child from nursery until you’re satisfied with their explanation.
Report to state and let them do the investigation. I would also call the director of the program. If there are cameras ask to watch them.

Call department of human services or whatever it is called in your state. DO NOT HESITATE. DO IT IMMEDIATELY BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE. A CHILD DOES NOT MAKE THESE THINGS UP. GOOD LUCK

If your child gets an injury they have to send a report home and sign it, even if it’s a bump on the head. So if she didn’t send one he’s definitely not lying.

I watch my great grandkids,and if they bump their head of is just a little fussy I let both parents know right away,we don’t trust daycare or outside babysitters
I think you should first speak to someone at the preschool program. Kids can really act out when they are taken out of their normal routines. After all your child is only 3, the people running the school are adults. I wouldn’t jump to conclusions right off the bat.

As a daycare provider, I have seen children say the teacher hurt me (in one particular instance it was because she had asked the child to get down numerous times, she tried to reach out to help the child get down, and they fell trying to get away because they didn’t want to.) but 80% of the time when a child has said that, there is a valid reason. Regardless of their age.
Please bring your child to the doctor first, get a report. I would speak with the daycare to see if their is an explanation, if they don’t have a solid explanation that seems genuine, I would file a report with licensing and the police and remove your child from care.

Call the police and make a report and call the head start administration and make a report
First, I would visit the class maybe with another person expectedly to see what the classroom in like. Then if you see he is right and not exaggerating call the services you need to. Be may be exactly right but also may be an accident not on purpose. Or say the teacher did something when someone else did while she was close by. If the class is active teacher may appreciate a volunteer a few hours daily and may let you volunteer if you don’t favor your son. Several ideas that may solve whether the teacher really is mean.
I learned that children younger that 8 or 9 see life a bit differently than older children or adults and have their own ideas about some things, not lying but just seeing differently.
Take your child to the hospital to be examined and make a report there.

First, document the injury. Take pictures and write down the exactly what he said. Second stop is the school. Not directly to the teacher, but the principal/dean/headmaster (depending on where you are and what they’re called), with the photos and child’s statement. Document the date/time and who you talked to. Give it a week, follow up. If nothing is done, next step is to the school board (even pre-k will have some kind of board or committee). Document the date/time and who you talked to. Repeat this process. If nothing is done, go to the press! In no way shape or form am I saying dismiss what your child is telling you, but tread carefully. Also, clarify with your son. Ask him questions. Who hurt you? Show me how they hurt you. Etc. It could have been an accident, it could have been malicious. Whatever you do, do not back off until your questions and concerns have been addressed properly.

Most daycares have cameras…but report.
Pull him out i just recently witnessed a teacher pull on a kid at Prisco center and my sis reported it and the teacher was trying to cover her tracks so hard it was ridiculous.
Poor kid was crying so hard and he was like 3 years old it was heartbreaking
Don’t bring your child back
You would file a report to your central head start office, social services, and your local state police. However, make sure that your son isn’t misunderstanding the situation. He’s only 3 so ask details. This would include what room, where within the room, what was going on ( music, lunch, nap, etc.) who was there, etc. If the child is able to consistently recall details then be sure to report. If not and the scenario is very vague or changes I would do pop ins at the school, talk to other parents.

I would be so livid ! I was livid actually!
My son was nit picked by his 1st grade teacher a few years ago …
Needless to say my son told me multiple times his teacher bullied him each time I took it to the teacher with phone calls and e-mails them in person she didn’t stop I took it to the principle several times it wasn’t until this teacher sent me email proof of her bullying my son while also trying to bully myself that the principle actually done something! I told the principle the last time that if he didn’t do something that I was going to contact and have this teachers credentials revoke that my son finally stopped getting bullied an at the end of that year I pulled him out and into a different school that finally treated him like he should be !
You’ve got to be your child’s voice so voice it to who ever you can that’s powerful enough to listen!
