I think secondary schools are also very different now too. Years ago, kids were being prepared for the big wide world of work and reality,,some of the teachers were pretty fierce too. These days, a lot of the teachers don't seem much older than the year elevens, I've seen the teachers 'high fiving' the kids on the corridors and treating them like mates. Where's the respect ? Kids need some sort of discipline and guidelines rather than just indulgence, no wonder they're leaving school behaving like they did when they started.
