My cooking class insited it was called a rubber scraper, but everyone else I've known calles it a spatula, or a rubber spatula if you need to distinguish it from the burger flipping kind.

That’s a rubber scraper, a type of spatula. In the US, you’ll generally see it just called a spatula.

Spatula, silicone spatula, scraping spatula if it has soft wings. It's the type that used to be known as a 'scotch finger'.

It is a spatula. Annoyingly, the utensil used for turning things over (rather than scraping things like this one) is also commonly called a spatula. Calling this a *baking*, *silicone* or *rubber* spatula will disambiguate.

Everyone here is saying it's a [rubber/silicone] spatula. However, the term 'spatula' can be ambiguous - even when you ignore British vs American English. Do [a search for "spatula"](https://duckduckgo.com/?q=spatula&iax=images&ia=images) and you'll see the above image but also a very different kitchen utensil.
Personally, I call this thing a "rubber scraper", and [this metal utensil](https://external-content.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=https%3A%2F%2Ffudgery.biz%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2020%2F04%2Fmetal-spatula-scaled.jpg&f=1&nofb=1&ipt=e0df801e2d02281592d8af36f0ecb8071ed6ee87dbb36f42d8cfcef787959847&ipo=images) a spatula or "metal turner".

A silicone spatula.

I'd call it a particular type of spatula, maybe "silicone spatula" or "icing spatula"? I'm not that knowledgable about baking though.

That's 100% a scraping spatula

Rubber scraper. Anyone who tells you it’s a spatula is lying. Spatulas are rigid and suitable for *flipping* food.

Spatula or scrapper, if you wanna be fancy the french word is "maryse", pronounced "mahriz"

Some people call it a "rubber scraper" but only when there's a large, pancake-flipping style spatula in the same room they want to avoid confusion. They can both be called "spatula"

In my language this is a “greedy spoon”, I assume because you use it to scrape every last bit out of a bowl

My Nan always called it a "doofer" when I was baking with her. So I still call it that.

This is a spatula, also known as a scraper, not to be confused with a spatula, also known as a pancake turner.
