U.K.- today's news- kids as young as 5 being expelled from school. What's happening?!?

Answer 1

The main people having kids are those who don't have work, are on benefit, and have nothing else, they are uneducated, young, and without imagination or hope or any skills to be parents. So basically kids are left running around to fend for themselves 'Gin Alley' style. They don't get taught to read, write or to be respectful of others. The parents send them to school and expect the teachers to do it all for them.

We need a tougher education system and policing system to get these kids off these irresponsbile and damaging parents.

I am not a snob - I grew up on a council estate in the same sort of depravation but I pulled it together because I was smart enough to do so but most of the kids there fall into a downward spiral because they lack the basic intelligence to see beyond their situation and to a place where they can make their life better - they have no idea it exists sadly.

Answer 2

Why, whenever a question like this comes up, does the pro-child-abuse brigade come out (and yes, I'm talking about the "bring back the cane" lobby that appear to have taken over this thread)? It's obvious that these kids are having serious problems and being treated really badly at home. Stop blaming the kids - who're only doing what they've been taught to - and put the blame at the feet of the people to whom it really belongs: the parents!

Answer 3

What's happening is really very simple.

Back in c1985 the use of the cane was banned in schools across the UK - corporal punishment abolished etc.

There's an old saying, "spare the rod and spoil the child".

This is exactly what is happening and the result is on our streets with guns and knives and the graffiti and etc.

Soon they will just walk into our houses and kick us out into the street and take over.

Beware! It will happen!

The Ancient British never allowed a boy or girl to go anywhere or do anything without the company of an adult.

What we now have here is "Lord of the Flies".

Answer 4

I don't think that the schools are failing, it's more a case that the parents are.
Children are not being taught respect and discipline at home, the children are being dropped off at school and the teachers can't discipline them like they used to, so what else can they do. Other good and well behaved children are suffering because of the bad ones, why should my child's education suffer because of this.
I have been caned and hit with the slipper when I was at school and it hasn't done me any harm and I can guarantee it settled me down.
Unfortunately it's not the school but the system and society that fail the youth of today!!.

Answer 5

This has been happening for a very long time.
However it is more public information these days.
Also with less respect for the system, due to less punishment
kids think they can do anything they want. So instead of whipping the little snots, they just get expelled.

Answer 6

The public education system here in the U.S. has become the same way - educators don't know how to properly deal with kids anymore. No common sense. Boys acting up and being boys?? Call it a "disease" (ADD) and then drug them with Ritalin. Your school has a no-tolerance policy towards weapons, and a kid brings a toy rubber knife to school? Expel him and have it put on his permanent record.

Answer 7

in the event that they are youthful then expelling them basically provides them a foul start up on preparation, wheras in the event that they have been to handle the difficulty on the commencing up then the youngster has a greater helpful danger in a protracted time till now this is too late (case in point in secondary preparation while they are older). So i think of they might desire to positioned alot of attempt attempting to style it out till now the rest, and purely expell them at a youthful age if no longer something is working and that they are affecting different scholars as nicely. the difficulty is at present that maximum faculties purely expel infants on the muse of them inflicting team or he college any hardship - or if this is making them seem undesirable. 9 circumstances out of 10 they care greater approximately that than the scholars themselves.

Answer 8

Think about it from the child's perspective. We expect them to go to schools with the most diverse population in our history; we offer no moral or ethical guidance; no discipline; we judge everything on how much money is behind it (thus being well behaved and poor is looked down on); our cities are over-crowded and getting more so; we long ago gave up on having well run schools with a stable of teachers who make it a lifelong career.

Answer 9

There parents havent taught them disipline. Public school is to educate not babysit and be Mommy and Dady for other peoples kids.

Answer 10

I have noticed that some teachers just don't want to deal with kids. Especially when these kids aren't theirs. Many people chose a career just for the heck of it, or becaused they are being pushed by the parents to have a career. Many peple are in their business for the paycheck. others do really love their jobs.
