Hi can anyone tell me what reasons may lead to a child being suspended?
my son is being suspended for drawing a willy in a textbook. he has never even had a detention before so I am surprised they are coming down so hard on him. he says he was encouraged to do it by another lad but knows it was wrong and he should not have done it, and has offered to pay for a new book out of his pocket money.
I understand he should be punished but I am shocked that he is being suspended, I went to the same high school and when I was a pupil there suspensions were given when a child had assaulted a teacher or for physical attacks, not for defacing a book. maybe i am over reacting but my son is in bits, he is physically shaking and crying, of course all the other kids know about it and have been teasing him all day.
I know school have different ways of dealing with punishments but i am really wondering what other reasons lead to a suspension especially when a child has not been in trouble before
