Father calls police to school disco scuffle
The parent 'pulled the children apart' and started 'shouting and swearing' before dialling 999 and telling cops one of the children 'assaulted' the other one
Usually, a little “dad dancing” is the worst that can be expected.
But one over-eager father caused a primary school disco to be cancelled midway through when he tried to break up a tussle between two children, then called 999 to report an assault.
The parent "pulled the children apart" and started "shouting and swearing" before dialling 999 and telling cops one of the children "assaulted" the other one.
Teachers at the St Andrew's and St Mark's Church of England Junior School in Surbiton, Surrey, for children aged between seven and 11, escorted children out of the 'disco' after the incident last Thursday.
Police arrived at the 280-pupil 'outstanding-rated' school and spoke to the 'upset parent', but no action was taken.
In a letter sent to parents, the parent-teacher association (PTA) wrote: "A parent of one of the children was on site when the incident happened and took it upon themselves to resolve the situation despite the PTA trying to step in.
"This was inappropriate behaviour on behalf of the parent and it came across as angry and intimidating.
"The parent also took it upon themselves to call the police who did attend the school. Unfortunately the children in the hall witnessed this behaviour."
One mum, who asked not to be identified, said: "I heard about this from my son who said this guy just flew onto the dancefloor and pulled these two children apart.
"He was shouting and screaming about one hitting the other and then he pulled out his phone and called the police and reported one of the children for assault.

"He ruined it for everyone."
A spokesman for Kingston Council said: "We take these matters extremely seriously, and the school has written to all the parents assuring them that the disco was constantly supervised.
"It is such a shame that a lovely event, usually enjoyed by all, was marred by the actions of one parent.
"We understand that this incident will have been very stressful for the children who witnessed it and the school will support them in any way needed."
A spokesman for the school declined to comment.
