- Summary:
- In this programme Mike Baker and Sheena McDonald discuss teachers powers of restraint under the Education and Inspections Act 2006. Mike explains why the changes were needed, what difference they make to teachers, and points out that there are still grey areas around when a teacher can and can't restrain a pupil. He points out that: Section 93 of the Education and Inspection Act 2006 has made the powers of restraint more explicit for teachers; The law grants teachers the right to use reasonable force as a last resort in order to restrain or control pupils; The government have produced guidance which, they say, will help teachers judge correctly whether any force they may use really is reasonable;The guidance stresses that the context of each particular situation must be taken into account. Tim Cooke from Maybo, a specialist in workplace conflict management.
