There is comprehensive coverage in the DAILY MAIL’s (11th July) on the Education Minister’s decision to axed Labour’s 600-page guidance on pupil discipline- which they claim confused teachers – and replaced it with just 52 pages.
The new guidance comes as figures from the Department for Education revealed that nearly 1,000 pupils are excluded for abuse or assault every single school day in England’s schools with soaring levels of attacks by pupils as young as five.
Major assaults on staff were found to have reached a five-year high after 44 teachers were rushed to hospital with serious injuries last year.
