Mum 'furious' with school after daughter left 'all alone' by side of the road

A mum was left seething after her daughter was left waiting outside her school on her own for an hour with no phone or money.

Her daughter, who is in year 6, ended up waiting by the side of the road all alone after her after school club had been cancelled. She usually walks from school and the mum picks her up from the small village "on her request" in order to "give her some independence" in preparation for secondary school.

Taking to Mumsnet's popular Am I Being Unreasonable (AIBU) thread, the mum sought opinions on whether she was right to be furious with the school who had only emailed her to tell her, despite knowing she has "zero" reception or internet at work. She titled her post: "AIBU to be furious with daughters school?"
