The Boss From Hell

November 2, 2011

For those of you that think your boss is bad:

A BULLYING school head has been banned from the job for life – but can still teach.

Debbie Collinson intimidated and swore at teachers and even gave pupils “Coke and doughnuts” in exchange for information about staff.

She also told teachers to falsely improve attendance records and test scores.

Collinson, head at Harrow Gate Primary School, in Stockton-on-Tees, Co Durham, was found guilty of ­professional misconduct.

Tribunal chairwoman Dr Barbara Hibbert told the Birmingham hearing: “It is simply unacceptable to manage a school in the manner in which she did, whatever the motivation.”

Collinson, who is in her late 40s, is no longer at Harrow Gate. It is it not known if she teaches elsewhere.

If your boss can match or better Ms. Collinson, I’d love it if you could share it.
