In high school I used to play up from time to time. It would be in the lessons like RE which I didnt see much point in and felt I was forced to be there (in a way I was.) Thing is, we had the 2 teahcers for RE. The one of them would either do nothing (let me play up) or argue with me which set the class off. The other one would just chuck me out so I stopped pratting about because there wasn't much point. Being out of lesson was all well and good but being on my bill and sent to the head of year...wasn't worth it really. Isolation isn't much fun.

So yeah, I used to be one of those annoying dick heads that disrupted the odd lesson. In hindsight it was pretty selfish of me...just because i didn't like the lesson didn't mean I had to ruin it for anyone who was interested (since getting to college I don't act up, I realised I got put the work in if I want to make something of my life...better late than never I suppose). But the teacher that just chucked me out stopped me from playing up while the one that tried to ignore me or argue with me just sort of encouraged me (as the rest of the class seemed to find it funny so I took it as encouragement)

An example of this, "Miss can you come and take a look over my work" a student asks, "Now Eddie, there is no need to throw pens at the blackboard" she says and completely misses what the student said. It really is just stupid that theyre having to discipline people who should know better by this age.

Personally I feel that if a student is misbehaving he simply shouldnt be welcome to gain anymore education from that particular lesson and be packed off to either isolation or told to stand outside of the class, the first being more preferable. As soon as a student is misbehaving I think they should be told to leave the room in a case where the teacher would need to pay full attention to them. Seriously it is messing up other peoples education, especially around exam times.

What do you think about it?

I believe my comment from most annoying things started this thread an by personal experience it's a bitch too deal. (and teachers know why students fail so often.)
