UK- Pupils as young as seven carrying weapons into the classroom


Pupils as young as seven carrying weapons into the classroom.

Researches revealed that small children at the age of 7 are taking illegal weapons to school.


The Centre for Social Justice claims that a fear climate is growing between the pupils of some of the Britain´s school, and warns that there is a profund failure in some institutions to deal with disruptive behaviour.
The report states: "The extent to which pupils in some of our schools are feeling unsafe and the impact that weapon-carrying street gang activity and conflict is having on their behaviour is staggering.
"During evidence to the CSJ, the head of a primary referral unit cited a number of examples of 7-11-year-olds being sent to the pupil referral unit for having brought knives into their primary school.
