Recently, on the way to the copy room, I had to, as so often, walking through the school of Neston High in the words of my deceased English lecturers Donald Lloyd Turner (God rest his blessed) think. His educational magic formula (he imagine a cowboy hat wearing, before igniting under the Non smoking sign on H2 a Marlboro Light 100, done!) It spread more often in the crowded auditorium of our university, always emphasized the importance of the knowledge underlining, saying German what else only occurred when the same concept not only explained, but also applications an end: Mr Turner argued that establish the discipline in a learning group only, and further conserve and leave, if you look at the first delinquent, which is even by the slightest disturbance or disrespect make headlines, pick out and then make ladies and gentlemen, simply done. " This approach seemed to me already in my then second half is highly doubtful, partly because I once had to itself suffering under it, as I was about to leave five minutes before the end of the event the Hörsall and was pulled before the assembled team to account, and secondly, because the construct thoughts of a man who was the was omitted in the course of a working day frequently as he had challenged the way to the university. The result then sometimes in an hour-long search of his car in the parking lot, although he had traveled by bicycle and had chained the bike in its usual place. Mr Turner, however, you must be good To keep the curious that he experiences from his life never to be retained, but that amused all regular classrooms.
I am now convinced that what I then became more like a bad joke, in the Anglophone world, a perfectly normal thing. True to the principle of "naming and shaming", which is so common and controversial in England as the five o'clock tea, I meet every day, countless students who have to do any kind of disciplinary action. On said road to copy space, for example, that hardly amounts to more than 50 steps, I counted five students and a total of four penalties. Popular For example, in Germany the usual exclusion from school. I myself, admittedly, probably spent most of my physics class in the hallway, but you go through an English school, one gets the impression that more students were waiting in the corridor, as listen in class the lesson. Furthermore, it is also a ausgepfeiltes warning system, similar to most ball sports expressed by different colored cards. A yellow card can be scored three times noticed uncomfortable in the classroom, orange's, if the teacher is of the opinion that has not been an improvement in the behavior set. Orange also means a call to the parents and correct empyreumatic's, if you will suspemdiert with a red card from school. To get an idea of the scale of card distribution, a brief anecdote from the teacher's room: in the free period is an art teacher, accompanied by their assigned assistant teacher in the Staff Room, noting that no yellow cards are more in the relevant subject. When asked how many they need for fall with the lower jaw in amazement at the table when it hits the class book and recounts: 20 of 25 students a class, what I call a good rate. As a British student is allowed to stand at attention often even the teacher leaves the rest of the class then for some Minutes alone to the intruder to the orderly transition after line and thread zusammenzuscheißen, sometimes in a tone that can shake the windows in the neighboring classes.
The above-described events are just a few examples of disciplinary action in English schools, the Neston High is further to be rather liberal (there you can even see, imagine if, at times students the shirt of their uniforms do not put in the pants have fopain quel). Detention during the lunch break (detentions), extra work and the morning roll call briefing with behavior I've never mentioned at all. It is, however, the question whether it really makes sense, continuously to tighten the thumbscrews. Comparing the educational self-understanding of schools in England and Germany and their corresponding treatment of sinners, one thing is clear: The discipline in German schools can indeed much to be desired, but without draconian practices prevail in general no conditions as to the Rütli school. I believe that in England often exactly the opposite of is achieved, which is proclaimed as the ideal behavior. If one sets up so many rules that it is almost impossible not infringe too, stirs you more than anyhow debilitating adolescent self-affirmation urge. Unfortunately, it is in England in this respect rather backward, has yet been caricatured Wilhelm Busch in the 19th century, ironically: "The donkey is a stupid animal, the elephant can not help it."
