ST SAMPSON'S HIGH is under-staffed compared with other secondary schools and its head teacher has demanded that Education treats it fairly.
A memo from Hazel Tetlaw to Education, leaked to the Guernsey Press, highlights her unhappiness with the number of staff at St Sampson's High when compared with Les Beaucamps and La Mare de Carteret.
St Sampson's has three additional pupils per teacher and Ms Tetlaw said she wanted the school to be 'treated more equitably'.
She said additional staff could make a difference to 'our management of the behaviour of some of our challenging students'.
'If we had the same staffing allocation as Les Beaucamps we would have 12 more staff than at present. If the same as La Mare, we would have 14 more,' she said.
