I don't entirely agree.
My mother quit her job of 30 years as a science teacher because of the "I know my rights" ASBO-cunts.

My mum was a damned good teacher, and hundreds of kids missed out on her knowledge thanks to these pricks. If they could have been given a damned good thrashing by the headmaster, perhaps my mother would have felt she had something left in her arsenal?

A common story among teachers unfortunately.

I agree.
Bring back the birch! It's a well-known fact that kids will learn nothing unless they're systematically thrashed to within an inch of their lives.

It does rather sound like this particular "ASBO cunt"
knew his rights better than the part-time oik who was supposed to be teaching him. He might well have been a proper little shit, but the person more likely to get an ASBO is the one who had such a weak character that he resorted to physical violence in a classroom. If that's how the lanky cunt resolves his issues with children, what does he do when adults disagree with him? Probably pisses his extra-long trousers.

The evidence for the effectiveness of corporal punishment in schools is scant to the point of invisibility. It's a shame your mum left education, but twatting kids wouldn't have helped anybody.

Maybe you're right,
but teachers have been left powerless in recent years to exclude, punish or even educate certain pupils.

Those are the ones we should sell to the arabs as sex slaves.

Could it be (God forbid) that they're just not up to the task?

Well, just to wade in with my 10p
It's true, twatting a kid doesn't help.

My Mum had to leave teaching after she assaulted a pupil.

She says she just snapped - kid came at her, she lost her temper and slapped him. The slap wasn't the assault (that was self-defence, apparently). The assault was when she booted him up the arse as he was walking away.

Now I'm not condoning this in any way - she *should* have used her teaching-fu to calm the situation down. But she didn't - she was stressed and harassed (and quite-frankly often scared of some of the larger pupils).

'twatting a kid doesn't help'
Perhaps not but from reading your description of what happened it is piss funny. Hoofed the kid right up the backside - brilliant.

Except for the premature end to her career part, that bit wasn't so great.
