Is isolation in schools protecting learning or harming children?: Points of View

About this episode

A BBC investigation has revealed that one pupil spent more than half an academic year in an isolation booth, with other students reporting being removed from lessons for issues such as uniform infringements, talking in class and lateness. Supporters argue that strict behaviour systems protect the education of the majority and create calm classrooms. Critics say prolonged isolation can damage children's wellbeing and may go far beyond what was originally intended. Join Tom Rogers, Yasmin Omar and JP as they discuss.
