    Many parents want their children to receive an education which is not disrupted, whatever the cause and although they may well sympathise with the causes of some disruptive behaviour they don't want their own kids suffering or held back as a result. I can understand that view. It is hard to see how you can please everyone. Suggestions?

    How do other countries deal with badly behaved pupils whose presence in a classroom is impacting the others?

    Not the best answer, but in other countries I believe they try to head the problem off at the pass. Families and parents are expected to be more involved and responsible in the first place, parents are after all the first teachers, and they need to be better at parenting before sending their kids to school.
    However getting involved in changing parenting culture would be very difficult, and very expensive. A radical approach is to make schooling optional, and to go, or to send somebody to school, is a positive choice rather than being forced to do so.
    Of course for somebody to go to school it needs to be perceived as worthwhile.
