Pupil behaviour no better than satisfactory in fifth of England's secondaries


After inspecting the equivalent of 574 secondary schools, the Department for Education concluded that 18.4 % of the pupil behaviour is either satisfactory or inadequate. That means that almost one in five secondaries were rated no better that satisfactory or inadequate. Last year the number was 21.3 %, a slight improvement. A concerned school minister, Nick Gibb comment: ‘Shift the balance of authority back towards teachers and schools’. The schools with the best pupil behaviour are found in Gateshead in north-east England, and Bury in Greater Manchester. Knowsley in Merseyside and Hull in east Yorkshire only have a quarter of secondary schools with good or outstanding pupil behaviour.

I think it is good to rate the pupil behaviour every year and that it is good news that the behaviour of secondary pupils in England is rated better than last year. The behaviour of pupils says everything about how the school rules, and as a future teacher you should be aware of this variety. I think I would teach part time at a school with good or outstanding behaving pupils and the rest of the week I will have a challenge teaching at a school with students who have a, according to the Department of Education, satisfactory or inadequate behaviour.
