When Is A Student Not A Student?

Hi All these stories of students sound so familiar we regularly get short term placement students for two week periods and I would easily say - 90% never attend for the full period of two weeks -most stand around with hands in their pockets waiting to be told what to do next, On the rare occassion that we have a good student we cannt sing their praises high enough that when they leave they probably think they are the best thing since sliced bread when really they are just average!!! I got so frustrated with the way students seem to either constantly play with the same group of children, play too rough and tumble or sit at a distance watching rather than doing, that I ended up drawing up a list of guidlines explaining to students what I expected from them during the session (professionalism!) and then a space at the bottom where they have to sign to confirm that they have read the guidlines. I tell students that Jewellery should be minimal because the children will pull at anything shiny and clothing has to be practical because I might spill paint on it if it looks too posh!!!! I try my hardest to scare the time wasters off on the first day with stories of poohy nappies, sick and any other horror story I can make up!!! Am I wicked?????
