Bonsoir,
Avec ces textes je dois répondre à ces trois questions pourriez-vous m’aider ?
What is bad behaviour?
UK schools are allowed to discipline pupils who behave badly in various ways. But what exactly is
bad behaviour? The following is a list of serious and not-so-serious types of bad behaviour seen by
a teacher in a London secondary school.
Playing truant
Smoking, swearing, hitting, kissing, running, stealing
Not doing homework
Cheating in exams (copying from secret notes or another pupil)
Calling a teacher or another pupil bad names (bullying)
Not listening or not paying attention in lessons
Wearing unsuitable clothes for school.

Punishments in GB schools
It is illegal for schools to use physical punishments like hitting a student. Here are some of the ways
that UK school children can be punished.
Exclusion: a pupil is excluded from the school and cannot come back. The pupil has to find
a new school or a different method of education (home tutor, special centre for difficult
pupils).
Suspension: when a pupil is suspended they cannot enter the building or attend lessons until
the school has a meeting about their case. Suspension can last from 1 to 45 days in a school
term. The school usually gives work to do at home with a tutor (special teacher).
Detention: a pupil is detained. This means he or she is asked to stay at school at the end of
the school day. The pupil must work for 30 minutes or an hour more before they are allowed
to leave the school.
Lines: a pupil has to write a sentence many times (100 times) on a sheet of paper: An
example sentence: I must not shout in class. This punishment is sometimes given during
detention too.
Contracts
Many schools in the UK now give parents a home/school contract. This is a contract explaining the
school discipline and rules. Parents must sign this document and agree that they accept the school's
rules. They are responsible for their child's behaviour and must respect the discipline methods used
in the school.
