Ooops. The Law of Unintended Consequences there - they'll have been ordered to Have A Proper Seating Plan by SLT.



Of course, SLT will deny it when the unintended consequence is pointed out to them - the teacher could well have tried to point this out themselves, but been dismissed as Being Obstructive or Ridiculous.



Don't give the teacher a hard time over it/complain about 'their' racism - explain this to your DC as well, as a pissed off teacher who knew this was a Fucking Stupid Idea in the first place will not appreciate being seen as That Racist Teacher if they've been threatened with dire consequences after their appraisal by their Line Manager/SLT.



But drawing attention to the unintentional effects of the seating plan in a polite way could get them out of having to do such things ever again.
