School crisis as kids ‘don’t know how to use toilet, can’t SPEAK & don’t understand English – with parents to blame’

SCHOOLS are having to deal with children who are not toilet trained and cannot communicate, according to reports.

Lantern Academy is located in one of the least well-off areas of Telford, Shropshire, and has 48% of pupils receiving free school meals.

Of the 27 four-year-olds who attended Reception in September, eight came wearing nappies, and a six-year-old child, now in Year 1, is still not toilet trained, the BBC reports.
