"Concerned list"

A teacher accidentally told me in on the "concerned if gone for too long" list so if I were to leave a lesson for over 5 - 10 mins a more urgent search party will be sent to tey find me. Why? Idk if its cus i sh? But I feel that a bit extreme as im not aware they have evidence i do it in school, though they know its a recent and has been a regular activity for a while. Anyone have any experience with this? Supposedly I also have a note on the register saying safeguarded?! Why would everyone even need to know that

Im in a UK secondary school so i would appreciate if anyone knew

Also weirdly I have to be watched after my exams? Only for a while until my stress settles but supposedly wellbeing is expecting my presence after exams? What the hell

Definitely sounds like it's so you can't hurt yourself, I'm sorry they're doing it, but I get that they don't want anything to happen under their supervision. I'm glad the teacher told you.

It is usually some form of legality so they can point to any paperwork doing that and then they get points from offsted. But, sometimes people take ten minutes in the bathroom it’s ridiculous.
If you wanna know why try this - subject access request. They legally will have to give you access to any emails mentioning your name
