Sounds just like the academy I did a PGCE placement at. School uniform and talking in the corridor were policed heavily, yet you had kids (junior school, so 7-11 years old) throwing chairs and threatening violence against staff. The school was outstanding according to OFSTED though, all because of meticulous recordkeeping and because pupil attainment was good. That is all leadership cared about, so violent pupils were never punished because it would reflect badly on the school’s reputation.

It’s insane that teachers just accept this amount of abuse and violence, and that they and the unions have allowed it to become the normal. I can’t imagine agreeing to work in an office where I and my colleagues would be attacked on a regular basis and just putting up with that as something that happens.
On an unrelated note, it feels incredibly patronising how the BBC now feels the need to stick a completely unnecessary picture every few few lines in their articles in case people get bored. Makes it so much harder to actually read.

Why are these incredibly disruptive children allowed to destroy the education of the other 90%, as well as make the teachers jobs unbearable?
Send them home for 2 weeks immediately after any violent incident. 3 strikes and you’re excluded permanently. Make the parents accountable.

Another school where all they care about is school uniform. What a bunch of clowns that run the place.
