Relationships are what the best schools are built upon. If sanctions break down relationships then maybe the answers are more likely to be found in empathy.
UK statistics for exclusions are shocking compared to the majority of other countries. If exclusion works so well then behaviour and attainment in our schools should be exceptional in comparison. This is not the case. Maybe we should look beyond our borders for alternatives.
It doesn't have to be a choice between zero tolerance and banning school exclusions altogether. Reducing exclusions just means making progress from where you are now. Surely we can all do that?

School leaders can work on reducing their exclusion rates without holding the belief that they should be banned entirely. Effective behaviour management strategies, strong relationships and early intervention all play a part in preventing avoidable exclusions.

In the run-up to the full reopening of schools, pls spare a thought for the kids who have no school to return to. The ones who had no school place before the pandemic hit. This is likely to be an upsetting time for them. A stark reminder of how different they are to everyone else
Questions that school leaders should ask themselves when setting up an on-site behaviour provision.

Statistics recently published by the government show some interesting trends for the 2018/19 academic year. Permanent exclusion rates are broadly similar to the previous year but the number of fixed term exclusions continues to rise.
