And unfortunately it will only get worse, my wife left education in October, she taught for 7 years and it absolutely broke her mentally and physically.
She had a hammer pulled on her by a year 8, verbal abuse, threatened to be punched by a pupil whilst stood with my stepdaughter and told to watch her fucking lip. I ended up having to put CCTV up as kids knew where we lived as they knew what car my wife drove.
System is fucking broken and it won't get any better, kids are fucking feral and it's the parents to blame a lot of the time!
