Security guards for Primary School

There was a report on my local news show last night, they said that a primary school has prison style fences with only one gate that is locked after lunch time, and security guards that patrol school grounds - watch over parent - teacher interviews and over assemblies. This school has had problems with parents barging into to classrooms to scream and shout at the teachers with a class full of young kids, irate parents barging into principal's or vice principal's offices and scream and shout which makes everybody very Angry

But this isn't the end of it, teachers have handed out AVO's to 9 years old because of extreme verbal abuse and also physcial abuse such as kicking and scratching. Most of the teachers feel intimidated by the aggresive parents and children.

i say kick the offending kids out of school that would get rid of the offending parent too. I don't like the idea of not being able to visit the school when ever I want to. The big fence and patroling guards is a good idea for keeping terrorism out though. they could give parents a school card to show the security at the gates. but locking out parents seems rediculous to me. kabi

One of the most chilling things for me so far as a parent was when we were at the meeting to welcome parents who's children will be in kindergarten this coming year, and to have the principal calmly (and with a smile on her face) explain the school's lock-down proceedure in case there is a shooter in the school.

Being an older parent and not having these contemporary problems, I cannot imagine what it is like!
I see so many parents of younger children not being able to discipline them whether in private or in the public areas. And I can imagine what our teachers must be going through.
I wish I knew the answer to what has changed. I raised two sons and never had a major problem when I said no. I have been accused of being strict, but also gave them praise and kudos when they were reached their goals.
