Teacher stabbed to death at Leeds school

I can't believe a 15 year old was carrying a knife in school. I tell kids to stop smoking all the time as well.

Times are changing fast!

Every year the upcoming set of teenagers seem to be getting cheekier, more abusive and braver to insult complete strangers and have a laugh with their mates about it. Today I saw a group of 12-13 year old girls being abusive, shouting and screaming *REMOVED* among other crap. Why? Poor parenting? Removal of authority from teachers? It infuriates me. Lot's of teens need to be put in their place.

Such tragic news, I hope she has found peace.

That is so tragic. There's definitely something going around mentally. Whether it be thru video games, or television shows that are making these kids lash out with violence.

No.

I was threatened with a knife by kids in my school year, we were 13.

No.

How can you just say no, and then give no reasoning behind it. Please try this again.

To post on topic:
The times are! I don't think I ever heard about kids bringing knives and guns to school when I was going thru.

How horrible! I agree that the article is confusing though, how come they were running from a classroom if it happened in the playground?

Why was he allowed to carry a knife anyway? I know I had to get my craft knife for my art GCSE exam brought in by my mum and was kept by the teacher during the breaks.. I suppose if nobody knew then fair enough but why would a child in a "generally safe school" be carrying a knife anyway?

Someone I know actually went to that school, she's gutted about it. Things like this just serve as a constant reminder that there's always work to be done to improve community safety and mental health of children.

I just said I read on Facebook that this happened the quoted is fact, the rest is just my view and what my fb friends from around the area said, maybe they made it up

It's lack of discipline. I would bring back corporal punishment in schools tomorrow - and I would have got caned a fair few times.

Awful story, RIP to the teacher.
