 In a way if he is not your son's teacher that makes it easier.
When you see him in the playground go up and make conversation. For goodness sake, flirt a little, if he's interested he will ask you out.

olivia78 is verified as being by the original poster of the questionIt is a bit awkward as he is not my son's teacher so i dont get much chance of speaking to him.I only see him in the playground in the morning when the kids are lining up, and sometimes at home times,if he's passing through the corridors.....i dont have the nerve to start a conversation up, all we have done is say hello to each other.

Hi,
yeah I could see this as an awkward situation to start off with. As an ex teacher if I fancied a mum of one of my kids I wouldnt naturally make an attempt as if you are rejected you would put the mother in a very awkward position being her son's teacher.
Find a way to have a long chat with him next time, and why not flirt a bit? That way you can test the waters. And dare I say it, but my wife swears by this so I can blame her - but wear something that shows off your best assets - guys are visual, if we like a girl and they are wearing a tight fitting skirt its damn near impossible to stop yourself from checking out her butt. My wife actually asked me out but not until she said that she caught me with my eyes hanging out staring at her butt when she wore a particular tight little number when we were out with friends. It's all very shallow I know, but hell, we are all adults so why not I say.
Alternatively, If you feel really confident just ask him out? Something like a visit to an exhibit at a museum or a daytime movie. Nothing too serious, so if it doesnt work out you won't really lose anything.
good luck

Sounds like the beginnings of something a little bit special. Just take it a step at a time, maybe invite him around for a cup of coffee and a chat one afternoon after school before the evening. It will give you a chance to chat a bit more and get to know each other a little more too.
If things develop into a relationship then great but even if they don't you may well develop a really good friendship with this guy and this would be a friend that you didn't have before so as far as I can see it you stand to win either way.

 i agree with talking to him but dont build up the possible sequence of events in your head so that the task seems daunting. simply chat and get to know him

 hey there, have you tried approaching him and making casual conversation with him when he greets you? not only is it viewed as being polite and friendly, but it is also a chance for you to get to know him and really see if he is flirting with you and likes you. he sounds friendly, so im sure if you approached him he would welcome the conversation. if you do sense that there is defo something there, why not suggest going for a coffee or something casual like that?
