Petition Give schools more powers to expel students

More details

Headmasters and schools should be given more powers to remove misbehaving students from their school. Head teachers should also have less paperwork to do when it comes to removing a pupil from their school. Too many troubling students ruin our children's futures by distrusting lessons continuously without being punished for it, it's about time headmasters were able to expel a student for causing trouble around the school. In case we have some lazy headmasters, the paperwork the head must fill in to remove a student should be significantly reduced. Schools should be able to remove a student with a weeks notice, without having to go through a long painful and useless process.
