Is there a disciplinary procedure re unruly pupils in Primary School which has to be adhered to does anybody know?
There is a boy in my daughter's Yr 1 class who is still 5 years old and has already been suspended twice. He just should not be allowed to have any contact with other children as he is a danger to them. Some of the things he has done include attempting to strangle another girl and stabbing a boy in the back with a sharp pencil which penetrated through his polo shirt and jumper and made his back bleed. He did this 3 times before the teacher was able to stop him. It's a good day if all he does is repeatedly kick and punch the other children.The teacher herself has expressed concern for the safety of the other children.
I realise that the boy has problems - there are 2 agencies involved helping the school, and the boy's parents are completely supportive of the school.
However, he is going to seriously hurt someone one day and I am obviously concerned for my daughter's safety. I have never known our HeadMaster suspend any pupil before and so am wondering if it's a case of so many suspension = and expulsion? Or what the procedure is - if there is one.
Would appreciate any teachers comments/advice.
Thank you.
