Re: Assault
But what punishment is available to disruptive pupils who make it nigh on impossible for others in the class to learn? They don't benefit from being at school and everyone else suffers. Exclusion (expelling) is a last resort after all else has failed but even then the pupils are being sent back so they just stick two fingers up at the teachers and carry on being a total pain in the posterior until they reach 16 and no longer have to attend. Meanwhile other pupils suffer because the classes cannot be taught properly when they have disruptive pupils in them.
I don't just mean a bit of paper flicking or chattering amongst themselves. I'm referring to violence against other pupils and teachers. Real physical violence which is driving people out of the teaching profession.
What's the answer? How can these pupils be dealt with?
