The Conservatives will restore discipline to classrooms

David McLetchie, Scottish Conservative British General Election Campaign Manager, says:

 "A member of school staff is attacked every 10 minutes. This is not right and it has to change.

"The Conservatives want discipline restored in every classroom, in all of Scotland's schools.

"School staff should not have to cope with verbal and physical abuse on such a scale. They must be given the means to restore discipline.

"It is time that persistently unruly pupils are removed from mainstream education and taught in separate Second Chance Centres until they show they can behave.

"Teachers should be free to teach and well behaved pupils should not have their education disrupted."
