How safe do your children feel at school?

Almost half of all children have had property stolen from them at school, a survey by a charity suggests. The Howard League for Penal Reform claims that almost all - 95% - of those surveyed have suffered some kind of victimisation.,Paul Fawcett, of Victim Support, said young people are "not getting support" from parents and teachers. As a consequence, they "feel they have to find their own solutions", many of which are violent.How can we better protect children? Are you a parent or a teacher? Have your children encountered such problems?

I agree with that the responsibility lies by the parents. I think when we want to change the attitude of the children at school we have to start at home. I do not want to glorify the good old days but some things were better that time. It seems that people do not have any respect for each other these days. I think that the only way to change this is the zero tolerance policy. When you will correct children constantly there will be a change and is I think the kids will like it because children like clarity. When there is a change there will be less violence and parent don’t have to be afraid of there children’s safety.
