  15. How young people see it • Sometimes the young people’s bad behaviour is as a result of being provoked or the teacher making the situation worse. It’s a two way process with the young people and the teacher • Some teachers think good behaviour is being quiet, not doing any work in class and not asking any questions • The school code of behaviour is important because it’s important the students know what they can and can’t do • The Principal and teacher should listen to the young person’s side of the story and not just the teacher • There are certain teachers you would go to if you had a problem, you wouldn’t go to the counsellor …as you would get slagged and you know they are going to talk about you in the staff room • Some teachers do not enforce the school rules and come up with their own
