Unruly students will no longer be expelled from public schools
A school is a blend of different characters and it’s not only a place to copy lessons in brain and put them out on answer sheets.
Students have different attitudes and aptitudes; a good teacher can easily understand students’ psychology and guide them on the right path.
Don’t think that mischievous students never come to normal route, that’s the duty of a teacher to advice and train them to be perfect.
Students’ interests will be different. A school is not just a production centre of professionals, it also creates good individuals.
Teachers are the backbone of a school and they are contributing good people to the world, because they have tools to carve a misshaped person. Forget about transfer certificates, dismissals and suspension, correcting an awkward child will definitely save some lives.

It is definitely a good move but every child needs to be given an opportunity to change, to improve. They are after all children; expelling them for misbehaving will only aggravate the issue and make them more aggressive.
Parents need to be more responsible and teach basic etiquette, ethics and manners to their children. These days, children are raised by their maids, rather than by parents. Home is the first school for children, and parents are unquestionably their first teachers. A teacher might be there to deal with academics, but she can definitely not take the place of parents who forgot to do their homework with their child.
On the other hand, there should be proper set of rules and regulations set up by the schools. A misbehaving child should be given a chance to change, parents must be informed about the recurring misbehaviour. Steps must be taken to bring about positive changes in the child’s behaviour.

All schools should have qualified staff who actually help the students develop as good human beings and citizens. Schools are not just for teaching what’s in the syllabus. Every child is different, if some children’s behaviour is different, teachers should try to understand the root cause and work with the student accordingly. All schools need trained professional staff who can do counselling and monitor the progress of the child. Where is all the profit going with such high fees? Expelling a child is like school covering up their own inability to deal with it efficiently. We need to start looking at these things more progressively and not like it was being done in 19th century.

A child is the product of parents who are solely responsible for their upbringing. Parents play a major role in building children’s behaviour towards society.
The first five years of a child’s life are crucial as 90 per cent of the brain develops during this period. As a parent, one should make sure you take utmost care of your children and help them grow in a positive healthy environment. Failure of which results in rude, abrupt, and offensive behaviour of children when they visit school and mingle with other children.
Parents and private school management easily throw this responsibility over to teachers, who is expected to miraculously correct the child without taking any action.
Though expelling is not the right way to correct a child, there should be some consequence for their atrocious behaviour, which should be jointly practised by parents and teachers considering the well-being of the child.

Not being amongst peers in life does affect more than anyone cares to admit. Intervention and therapy help regulate anyone who has issues, getting expelled from school is not a small thing to be ignored, it equates to being thrown out from the home because school is a second home growing up for most children...

It’s the parents’ responsibility to get their children under control; children should know that their actions could have consequences.
