A Father is suing a private school over his sons expulsion.

If the Ivory Tower is the brain of the board, and the Transformers discussion is its heart, then General Discussions is the waste disposal pipe. Or kidney. Or something suitably pulpy and soft, like 4 week old bananas.

A Father is suing a private school over his sons expulsion. Is this right?
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/...ire/4173546.stm

The boy committed over 400 misdemeanours. I suspect those are just the ones the school recorded as his everyday behaviour involves a big negative attitude and refusal to obey most of the rules.

He claims it's because his results are not good enough, though IMO thats probably because he has been caught misbehaving 400+ times :rolleyes:

Still what are your opinions?

Case will be thrown out of court fairly quickly I'm sure.

Yeah you'd think, but these days I'm not so sure...

400 [composite word including 'f*ck'] ups? Why is this guy still allowed to walk around normal people?
Can't believe I'm still here.

d'uh! some people are just so ******* stupid, the father needs to spend more time punishing his son rather than going to court, fecking idiot!
of course he's got crappy results, he's spent all his time misbehving (400+ is quite impressive mind) rather than working.
:no:
the ****.

Some parents seem to think that because schools are there to teach kids basic skills, they are also obliged to raise their children for them. imo this won't last long in court if the evidence really is as one-sided as this implies- AND the father will probably be liable for costs. Marvellous n_n

I wonder if the father realizes that it is a Private School :roll: ... so there are rules and obligations that a student must follow... which is different from a public school.
