ABSTRACT

‘Hamed is a good for nothing, lazy, pain in the neck! He’s an inveterate bully, he’s always winding children up, calling them names and being horrid. He’s usually late to class and disrupts proceedings just as they are getting started. Yes, he’s bright, but his concentration is so poor he never finishes anything he starts. He won’t do as he is told and if challenged it invariably ends in an argument. He is such a distraction to the others it is a blessing when he is off sick, which is hardly ever. I think it is wrong that he is allowed to represent the school at football and rugby. He should be banned from these activities unless he learns how to behave in lessons.’
