St George Secondary is addressing its image problem.
Principal Joseph Maynard said they were still some disciplinary issues, such as lateness and general bad behaviour outside the school walls, but steps were being taken.
“We are addressing our issues. Sometimes children will miss the bus or it will not come at all, although we do have one or two delinquent incidents. We are also tackling the problem of students misbehaving outside the school gates.
“We are beginning to see a greater effort by the students to do what they are supposed to do. We have been teaching conflict resolution and I am glad to see some improvement.
“Things are beginning to turn and the staff remains very committed,” he said. (CA)
