New powers to discipline
Description
During the 2010 election, the Conservatives seemed to touch a popular chord when they called for a crackdown on discipline in schools. Then the coalition government promised to give teachers extra powers to ensure good behaviour in the classroom. But what new powers are needed? And where does the balance lie between the rights of pupils and parents and the rights of teachers? Mike visits Bishop Challoner Catholic School, London to talk to staff and students about the plans for new powers of search, clearer guidance on the use of physical restraint, instant detentions, and anonymity for teachers facing allegations. Mike also canvasses the opinions of Chris Keates of the NASUWT, John Bangs of the NUT and Eleonora Christodoulides of the Advisory Centre for Education.
