Topic: We should adopt a zero-tolerance policy in schools
good zero-tolerance policy in school
however these policies can impede the advancement of children from troubled backgrounds or with additional needs. they need a safe place to learn in a positive behaviours in a supportive environment.
i agree that a zero-tolerance policy in schools is a good idea since it would mean that our children are safer when they go to school.
i don't agree with adopting this policy because it teaches students that they have no right to privacy and any mistakes they make will be punished to the highest degree, making them feel less safe in school
i think it is a very appropriate method given the physical and psychological violence that exists in schools today.
i think its a bad idea because you cant mold children into being whatever you want. they will have free will and might rebel.
if a zero tolerance policy in schools is adopted, this will impinge on the rights of the pupils to challenge decisions they may deem unfair or unfit.
if students know that they are going to be punished for a first time offense they probably will not even try it.
in many cases punishment does not match crime
Instead of doing good, zero tolerance policy in schools only lead to more violence, damaged kids and  confusion.
it can act as a good deterrent to bad behavior
it can be used incorrectly. children's lives can be ruined because of one minor incident.
it could hurt the child's future if the are punished for a small incident
it has been shown that children are at a higher risk of dropping out of school if there is a zero-tolerance policy in place
it is a good measure, since our youth currently lack responsibility and discipline, and with this we favor more that ability
it is a harsh way to treat students possibly leading to more rebellious attitudes.
It is exactly because children are not yet capable of making good decisions that we need a zero-tolerance policy. Such a harsh consequence is the only way to ensure they will comply with the rules.
It is just that violating school rules results in serious consequences.
it is necessary to have a zero tolerance policy to allow other students to benefit from a stable learning environment
it is not fair to treat students as prisoners and restrict their abilities and freedoms.
it is the best way to teach kids right from wrong
it is unfair on those being bullied to punish them the same as you punish the bully
it keeps our children safe and prepares them for the real world after school (the police won't accept any excuses before arresting you so teachers and administrators shouldn't either).
it makes a school a safe place for children to learn
it might not be effective at all in most cases because if a student brings a bomb to class, they'd hide it and use it on the instance they are able to.
it should be a choice for each student whether they smoke or not, and a school should not restrict tobacco usage or at the very least provide an area where it's allowed.
it will make schools safer.  it encourages all students to follow the rules.
it would keep children from hurting others such as bullying
