Published in 1983. One response to the recent concern about pupil
discipline in schools has been the creation of support centres:
off-site special units to which disruptive pupils are sent for
varying periods of time for education and supervision. The Inner
London Education Authority had a substantial network of such
centres. Yet the concept of these units has aroused some criticism:
they have been labelled as 'sin-bins' and as dumping grounds for
adolescents. This book is based on major research conducted by the
ILEA over a number of years and provides the only substantial
evaluation of support centres. Data are presented on pupil
characteristics and attainment, on how the centres operate and on
the views of the staff in centres and in referring schools. It
concludes with an evaluation of support centres, highlighting a
range of innovative approaches to the management of disruptive
behaviour. The authors warn of the dangers of developing a separate
system for disruptive pupils, but conclude that some form of
alternative provision is needed for the foreseeable future.
