Can a Zero Tollerance stance ever be taken on any subject for any person?
What does Zero Tollerance mean to you? Do you have any examples of when this policy has helped, or indeed caused more problems?
On which issues should or could a Zero Tollerance policy work and in which situations should this stance be taken?
I have been tasked with the role of delivering an assembly to my school with the idea of encouraging more cooperation and smoothing over areas of friction in my school. We are a big school in a rural area and many of our social issues are many years behind what goes on in inner city schools. An influx of eastern European workers and their children to the area which has caused immense friction between students. Homophobic and racist behaviour is enforced throughout generations of rural life, the school is now revitalising its Zero Tollerance policy on such subjects.
I would love to hear any views, opinions or past examples people have gone through that may help me to help them.
Many thanks,
Matt
