The headteacher criticised by a school mum after claims her son "went all day without hot food" has sent a letter, warning her she could be banned from the school grounds.

Stacy Jarvis, 31, spoke out last week, claiming her nine-year-old son Jayden Hunter was unable to get a hot dinner after the food ran out while he "took his time" on the toilet.

Miss Jarvis, rowed with the headteacher at Thanet Primary School after Jayden was offered a tuna sandwich instead of his chosen hot meal and vowed not to send Jayden back until the school apologised to him for "making him hungry." You can read the story in full here.

However, in the letter from the headteacher, it states that the school had not run out of hot food and that Jayden had tried some Shepherd's Pie before being offered the tuna sandwich - which shocked Miss Jarvis who says she was not told this before now.

After being threatened with a fine for unauthorised absence, the mum of three sent Jayden back to school after one day off, with a packed lunch. The single mum claimed the school had "backed down" after they assured her he would not go hungry again.

However, Miss Jarvis has now received a letter from the headteacher, warning her she will be banned from the school grounds if she is "rude and aggressive" again.

In a statement to Hull Live, the headteacher said: "Thanet school promotes five key values of respect, responsibility, kindness, honesty and friendship. I have written to Miss Jarvis to request she adheres to these values.”

The letter - relating to a conversation between the headteacher and Miss Jarvis on Wednesday at the school, said: "I will not tolerate a repeat of this type of behaviour towards either the school or the staff.

"If this happens again I will have to take further advice which could result in you being banned from the school site."

Miss Jarvis said she was stunned to receive the letter, which was sent by e-mail.

She said: "I have no reason to be banned from the playground as I was only doing my best interest of my child not being fed, I'm sure if he went to school and said I wasn't feeding him that would be a different story.

"I don't get why she doesn't see my point as a mother, a parent, that my child was hungry at school because they didn't feed him.

"I don't get what's going on now with the headteacher, why she hasn't asked for a meeting to talk to me properly about this whole situation.

"Also, not once has she said to me about children and parents complaining about me, only until she sent the email, so as in her profession shouldn't she of banned me then?

"I think she needs to make her mind up, I think she is saying all this now to have her own back. It's a joke. I don't know why she hasn't said anything to me in person."

In the letter, the head also tells Miss Jarvis she "knew full well" the school did not in fact run out of hot food, informing her Jayden had already tried a serving of shepherd's pie before being offered a tuna sandwich.

Miss Jarvis said she was stunned to see the mention of Shepherd's Pie in the letter, because "no one had told her" that part of the story.

Miss Jarvis, pregnant with her fourth child, said: "She failed to tell me any of this last week. Apparently he was [offered Shepherd's Pie] and didn't like it, but why didn't she say that?

"I know I wouldn't and he didn't choose it as a hot meal as I know he doesn't like it.

"No deserts were mentioned to me either because I wouldn't have minded even if he had some sponge and custard, at least it was something, but she didn't once tell me that there was pudding available until I got the email.

"I'm fuming with the e-mail she sent to me."
