'You need to take that litter with you as you leave', I call out to a pupil standing up and walking away from their table in the dining hall at breaktime.
'But it's not mine' - a familiar reply. A simple, polite but firm 'okay, but I still need you to put it in the bin, thanks' is usually enough but sometimes they just walk off anyway, and today was one such instance. How rude.
My dining hall duty colleague comes up, 'you know who that was don't you?'
I didn't.
'That's the deputy head's daughter.'
Right-o.
