Wait, wait, let me guess - 'minorities worst hit'?
Extremely strict behaviour policies unfairly punish working class children who may not be as focused in class or as well-behaved because of difficult circumstances at home, teachers have suggested.
Ahhhh yes, The age old 'Officer Krupke' theory. They are depraved on account of they're deprived!
The remarks came as the NUT section of the National Education Union (NEU) raised their concerns about the state of children’s mental health at their annual conference in Brighton.
You know, it really was nice of them to choose an acronym that's so descriptive...

What about the mental health crisis that's being fed by loony bleeding heart experiments? It's doin'
my NUT in...
"the move towards ever more punitive behaviour policies in schools"
ReplyDeleteI must have missed this move...

I must have missed it too. Unless they are referring to those terrible uniform rule infringements?
