Bridget Phillipson: parents must do more about bad behaviour and attendance in schools | Education policy
The educational secretary said that parents and caregivers should “do more ve in order to reverse their weak participation and post -behavioral tendencies in schools and said that the educational secretary announced new measures to support schools in England before the start of the new academic year.
Bridget Phillipson introduced a United Kingdom Government Program targeted by 800 schools attended by approximately 600,000 students on Sunday, and started from the first wave of 21 schools that will serve as participation and behavioral center.
Struggling schools will reach the support of the managers who successfully handled problems in their schools. The entire program is expected to support 5,000 schools, including intensive support for 500.
Phillipson said: orum I urge parents to join us to join us to get ready to learn to take schools, schools and families in the classroom and to be ready to learn to start the new school period.
“This year we have made 5 million days of progress at school and we support parents through our change plan and support schools.
“But we all need to do more, and when it comes to taking children and acting – this includes mothers, fathers and caregivers.”
The Ministry of Education has shown that seven of every 30 class minutes have been disrupted. This year, a survey conducted by the NASUWT Teaching Association found that the number of students who exhibited severe and abusive behavior at the school increased and the government figures in England have found that the suspension and exceptions in the UK rose to a record level in 2023-2024 academic year.
The general absence rates decreased in the autumn of 2024-2025 compared to the previous year, but more than 50% of the number of students ‘number of students’ number of students rose to 148,000.
Phillipson, written in the market telegram, especially his White Working Class is worried about childrenDemographic group with one of the highest general absence and suspension rates.
The newly published statistics from the National Behavior Study show that one of the 10 white children in the UK is suspended in 2023-24 academic year. Gypsies, Roman and wandering students, except for the highest number of suspension ratio.
He said: “There is not an opportunity for too many white working class children”, “One of the 10 white children in free school dinners was suspended last year and the suspension rates were five times higher than their peers”.
“These children swim up against a surprising, settled class division, seeing that they are disproportionately out of education or did not participate in the first place.”
Permanent school absence or suspension periods are directly linked to the quality of life in adulthood: Children suspended at school are three times the likelihood that their peers have disease benefits and earn £ 10,000 a year on average.
Phillipson announced that two participation and behavioral ambassadors will support the new program: Tom Bennett, who advised the behavior training department and former student orientation unit Director Jayne Lowe.
The white book of the government’s schools, which is expected to be published in autumn, will put forward other plans to deal with bad behaviors.
