He Told All The Students At His School Who Were Forced To Take Summer School That It Was Because Their Teacher Was Incompetent

Have you ever had a teacher in school who was young and super chill, to the point where you could tell it bothered the older teacher?
One man is the head of a department at a private high school and recently told all of the students forced to take summer school that they had to do it because their new, young teacher was incompetent.
He’s in his 50s and the head of the mathematics department at a private high school. Last year, the school hired a young woman in her mid-20s who was fresh out of graduate school for a teaching position. When they first hired her, he was hopeful, as she had a lot of enthusiasm.
But by the time September ruled around, he couldn’t stand her.
“She is the most two-faced individual I’ve ever seen,” he said.
“During meetings and private conversations, she’s fine. But if you put a 16-year-old student in hearing distance, she immediately becomes intolerable.”
One time, he had to give a meeting on student manners and classroom etiquette to students as he’s the head of the disciplinary committee.
While he was presenting, he could hear some snickering going on in the section this young teacher was seated in. After the meeting, he heard she made sarcastic comments throughout his presentation.
When he had to supervise one of her classes once, he noticed that while she was a new teacher, her classroom instruction was passable.

But then, as he was leaving her classroom, he heard her jokingly announce to her students that they could do anything they wanted since he had left, and the room filled with laughter.
He and this teacher share a few students, and he became even angrier when one of those students said that her class is mostly filled with free time and chatting. It got to the point where he had to warn her about time management.
The issues with time management showed when the end-of-the-school-year testing came along.
“Any students who fail to achieve a certain score on these tests must go to summer school,” he explained.
“My students did fine, [with a] 91% pass rate, which is about normal. Her students did terribly [with a] 54% pass rate. This is the lowest I have ever seen in my 20-year tenure at this school. She offered to teach summer courses to them, but I informed her she would be doing no such thing.”
Instead of having this teacher lead a summer school class, he divided the work among other teachers.
One day, during one of these summer classes, he had a student complaining about why they were there.
He told that student that once the testing grades were satisfactory, then everyone would be alright.
Then, he said, “I apologize for your previous teacher’s conduct and incompetence. I’m sure you’ve noticed many of the other students here were in her class.”
Little did he know, his comment would spread like wildfire, and the teacher would find out about it. She called him the next morning and was furious.
She told him he was unprofessional, and he argued back, telling her that her performance as a teacher had caused a lot of trouble for the department. She denied what he said.
Now, he’s wondering if he went too far when he said that to the students, even though he still doubts her teaching abilities.
Was he wrong to make that comment in the classroom?
