Not too sure.Depends on prior record. He'll be in on monday, until the issue filters to the head of year (should be monday) but since I don't teach year 11 I don't particularly care. I would have thought that he'd get a suspension. I'll let everyone know when I find out. I must say, i'm rather curious about what he wrote about the incident.

Sounds like either a rural schoolor a rather high scoring or private school. At the lower end of the league tables, things are a little different...

Ah, different country.England is different. We can't expel people as easily, and on top of that, another school in the area is obligated to take them on. If the child gets expelled enough, then they'll end up back where they started. :(

It's probably a good thingthat you didn't have to defend yourself by hitting him. You would have been arrested before him. The child protection bill is a bit fucked up that way

you're not wrongteachers should be encouraged to exercise corporal punishment, not prevented.

I wouldn't have hit him anyhoo.Not good practice. If I was attacked properly, safest thing to do is pin him against a wall or sit on him. ^_^
