have to agree with you on one point cashy and that is RESPECT is at the centre of it all...
where I will disagree is that it IS progressing in some schools... but of course I can only talk of my two son's school...I am amazed at the respect that is shown by the pupils at the school and also that also includes the teachers giving the kids respect too...
don't get me wrong there will always be issues, but I do believe this school has the balance right between discipline and education.. my youngest son was disciplined recently for what was classed as a very minor thing in many people's eyes, yet he was punished quite severely.
Hooray I say...yes it was a bit overkill but he learnt from it
