Saturday Detentions

[ToxicPaddy]

Omg. Did you know they are proposing Saturday Detentions here?

I think it will straighten kids out, if this comes into place the behavior is going to improve!

Whats your views on this? And sorry if its already been posted.

My school's had Saturday detentions for quite a while now.
If you're late 3 times in a week you get a Saturday detention.

[cocaine]

[Blue]

Nope, where i live i've never heard of Saturady detentions, but how are they forced to go to them?

Do people actually show up though? And what time are they?

I've never heard of them.. but a Saturday detention would suck. ;l

[buttons]

ewww that sucks.
i've had a meeting on a saturday once, to see if i was getting excluded or not.
we only have after school detentions, you only get that if you failto turn up on your afternoon ones.

[ToxicPaddy]

so it sounds like it has been out for a while, but what are your views on this? do you think it will straighten idiots up?

[Technologic]

My school has saturday detentions and afterschool ones...

Yeah people do turn up because if you don't you get an hours detention everyday after school for the following week and another Saturday detention.

I'm not too sure of the times, but I think it's from 8:30am to around 10am.

[Ashley 12344]

Open revolt.
My old school wouldn't react well.

Ahh I thought it'd be early, just deters people from getting lates or misbehaving even more.

[Krusty]

That sounds like quite a good idea... Would stop peopel misbehaving
People probably wouldnt turn up
they'd blame it on over sleeping or something.
Being one not to get detentions i would love to see this happen ;)

Our school only does after school & lunch detentions.
Monday to thursday - 3:30 untill 4:00
Friday: 3:30 untill 5:00

reason for 90 mins on fridays 'you ruin our lessons, we ruin the start of your weekend'

[Shawnstra]

My school's detention is great, 30 mins after school :D

Never got it though.

Only 30minutes?

[stratosphere]

school's had saturday detentions FOREVER.

[PlKEY-ARMY]

saturday detentions not tha bad
go in own clothes and jus had to tidy a room but it was trashed... it was the summer and really hot
werent allowed to open windowss...:| ahah

[Titch]

LOL, at my school (all boys) no1 turns up to detetions at the moment, and i would certainly not waste my saturday at school, i waste 5 days a week there are is it, i swear schools are trying to rule our whole lifes.

[Spectate]

I think Saturday detentions are a little harsh. An hour or so after school seems to be enough.

[xxMATTGxx]

Around here, nothing about "Saturday Detentions" I hardly think any of the teachers would want to come in on a Saturday either. We do have after school detentions though.

[Immenseman]

A few schools around here do Saturday detentions, glad i've never had one. I think it's a good idea until you get one, it won't stop people from misbehaving because the sort of people who deserve saturday detentions wouldn't even turn up half the time anyway.

[Firehorse]

My school does saturday detentions. If you get three sanctions or a couple of department detentions a letter gets sent home explaining that yuo'll be in school for an hour on friday or saturday. The bad thing is if you get a saturday detention you have to come in full school uniform!

[Eamonn]

my schools had them for years and years, never had one thankfully.

[Jericho]

My school doesnt have detentions period, oh joy!

[alexxxxx]

they say the 'have the power' to give one at our school, however, noone ever gets one. Like any teacher would want to come in on a Saturday.

[Spectate]

Really? What kind of punishments do they use then?

my former high school had saturday detentions. we had to go in our uniforms, as well.


=x

[joshuar]

We don't have them, if we did I wouldn't go.

They think they can waste my time off? Forget it. We have after school detentions, but I've never got one of those.

[Alkaz]

i think that saturday detentions are a good idea.

[benjamin]

we only got after school ones, 1 hour 10 mins - 3:20 until 4:30

What a joke.

My school doesn't have Saturday detentions... usually just after school or if you're lucky at lunch and they are normally 30 mins long depending on the teacher. Some teachers see that you took the time to show up so they just let you off (usually because the detentions are from something not that serious) and yea

[Markness.]

Never heard of a saturday detention here.
Are schools acctually aloud to do them? (Insurance and stuff)

[Geraint]

I tell my school to stick their Saturday detentions where the sun doesn't shine. I go watch Cardiff on a Saturday so they might need to pay for my ticket.

[Jericho]

I have ASD so im in a different type of school with kids who were getting into trouble, have "problems (lol)" or just had a general hard time at skl.

:)

[CJW93]

Our school dont have them but the though of them make me cringe

[jesus]

ive never even heard of them! thats crap, you should just not go!

[Seacat]

LOL as if
Most of the kids who get detentions don't go to school through the WEEK, let alone the weekend.

[Herman]

nah, my school has no saturday detentions, just after school ones. however, the SHORTEST detention you can get is 2 hours (in a day) and the longest, 4 hours (in a day).

[Tiked]

Well my school gives

Friday Detentions (1 Hour after school) for copying homework, talking in line e.g..

Saturday Detentions (2-4 hours) Chewing gum, swearing, e.g.

Holiday Detentions (2-6 hours) Playing nut meg rush, e.g

Suspension (1 week) Bringing in a phone :rolleyes:

Wow, your school is strict! If we chew gum we just get told to put it in the bin lol.

[DaveTaylor]

our teachers would kill the council if they said they could do saturday detentions

[Teyauna.]

Lord please don't let this come to Canada. I've never gotten a detention before only at 10-minute recess for being late three times. But, I think this would deter people from misbehaving, etc. Maybe.
