I had a bit of a butting of heads at work today with someone

Was there an actual problem with your work/the substitute's work that can affect the company? Or was it just a personality clash, basically? If it's the latter I wouldn't worry about it, if it gets brought up at all just explain your side of the story honestly

Basically, I work with disabled children. She accused me of doing nothing and a child almost was outside of the gate unsupervised. The child was still safe, just out of the contained playground we play on, not like she walked out on the street or anything... The school is completely locked too, child wasn't in danger

The kid can't speak and barely comprehends anything. An hour after the fact, the sub tells me the situation and how no one did anything and she just watched a disabled child leave a gated area without anyone noticing.

She then told me I needed to lecture the child. I told her, honestly, if it's not in the moment and immediate reprimand, the child won't understand what we are talking about. She then told me that I am doubting the child's capabilities.

The sub then proceeded to lecture the child. The child had no idea what was going on, as I already knew would happen. I told her, we'd just have to be more careful and catch her in the act to have a teachable moment for this child. She told me she outright disagreed with me.

The sub then proceeded to tell everyone I work with that I neglected a child walking out a gate. Wouldn't doubt she left a note for my supervisor.

The issue is, because of the sensitivity of the place of work, this can be twisted into something that seems way worse than it was.
