Schools should be fined for illegally excluding pupils, inquiry finds

The video is about a 15 year old boy that was illegally excluded from going to school. When he was sick he missed a lot of school which made his grades go down. Because of this his school recommended that he start at a new school. This program is called manage move and it offers students who missed out on a lot of classes a second chance at learning without having a permanent exclusion on their records. But his mother did not gave up and finally after a rigorous battle she found a school to register her son.

This video actually caught me of guard because I never thought that in England students are illegally excluded from school without valuable reasons. I think it is unacceptable to exclude students from school because then they are going to develop a gap in their education and will more likely end up on streets. These students will have a lot of free time and will look ways to entertain themselves by doing either wrong and hopefully good things. Idle hands are the devil’s playground. Moreover, criminals will take advantage of these children by misusing them by forcing them to engage in illegal activities.
