  Latest news on teachers are concerns that they feel untrained in many cases to deal with violent pupils.
  
  Clearly they are given guidlines that they are able to use REASONABLE FORCE to seperate two pupils fighting.
  What is reasonable to you or I may not be reasonable to some other magistrate!!
  
  Some head teachers feel the training should not be a blanket training for all teachers as many schools don't suffer violent pupils.
  
  Then theres the question of those schools that pretent they don't have problem pupils, thus by putting teachers on this training to them would be an admittance the school does have a problem.
  
  From my point of view, I only got the cane once, it did sting at the time, but it made me realise I didnt want that again, and never got caught agaIn!
  
  There is a very thin dividing line between teachers being able to control children, and the outright bashng of kids which can be allowed.
  
  We do need to look again at how society has changed, and go back to allowing teachers be able to control classes without the threat of legal action.
  
  What do you -all think?
