Sub Tells Class That Santa is not Real

A substitute teacher at Blackshaw Lane Primary School in Royton, Greater Manchester told a class room of 7 year old that Santa is not real. The substitute teacher said "it's your parents who leave out presents on Christmas Day". The teacher claims that they blurted out that he did not exist in an effort to calm down the class of 25 Seven year olds who because rowdy talking about Santa. "My son came home and said that his substitute teacher had told the class that Santa doesn't exist," one father said. "I thought it was wrong. He was distraught about it. He's only seven-years-old and it's part of the magic of Christmas to him."
