Calls for multi-agency approach for disruptive pupils
A union has called on government to put forward a central behaviour policy for schools.
The NASUWT wants the Department of Education, Sport and Culture to bring forward a multi-agency approach to dealing with disruptive students.
It comes as the department's consulting on a draft strategy for a new education act following the withdrawal of a contentious bill earlier this year.
Geraldine O'Neill, the local negotiating secretary, says the current system isn't up to scratch:
Planning application for onshore wind farm still being developed
Motorcyclist suffered fatal chest injuries in crash
Trial for trio accused of producing Class A drugs to Island
Too early for 'direct action' over cost-of-living concerns says chief minister
