School Discipline

How to solve the crisis of indiscipline in schools? Appoint some union brothers and sisters who are "Educational Discipline" experts and some other "professionals". Give them a budget and ask them to produce a report by October 2005. Also give them terms of reference, should there be a national code of behaviour? Is more teacher training required? and the job is done!!

Why not involve parents, Chris Woodhead or the Independent Sector who seem to have a relatively good record of discipline in schools? They may not give the "right" answer but it would be the right one!!

Update Teaching Unions have welcomed the new task force, the Task force head does not believe punishment will work, carpets will. It is doomed to failure!!

We should really be asking the teachers first. They're the ones in the front line of the problems. Perhaps instead of being so obsessed with political correctness and going back to the discipline which used to be enforced, many of the current problems would be solved.

Parents carry primary responsibility for how their kids behave, but Kelly's lame-brain appoint a Union Brother to do bugger all is so typical of this Labour junta!

Also, I have huge reservations about the quality of teachers - so many of them are rabid leftists themselves!!
