Text

Does the Minister agree that the issue of workload is connected in part to teachers having to deal with a small number of disruptive pupils who cause a disproportionate amount of disruption, creating a lot more work for teachers, and that it is vital that there is the capability to swiftly and firmly deal with the small minority of disruptive pupils in our schools?
