The UK government has got a lot to answer for. Like other governments, they pretty much force parents to send their children to schools, but they provide them with such a crap offering.

The only problem with this report is that doesn't give an exact number of students who are doing this. It could be one child, maybe more - no definite figures are given.
If it's only a couple of students, then it's probably the richer parents who are opting to make their children look like geeks with the vests.
I don't know what's wrong with the British education system, but I know that it's broken. A couple of Aussie teachers who I know have returned EARLY from their teaching contracts in the UK. They were appalled at the lack of basic respect that anyone showed each other in their UK schools.

"Middle school issues 'ban' on intentional flatulence:
CAMDEN (Feb 4, 08): The Merriam Webster Dictionary definition for flatulence is brief: "flatus expelled through the anus." And while it's a natural bodily function, it seems some Camden-Rockport Middle School eighth-grade boys are taking it to new heights and allegedly making a game of seeing who can expel the loudest and grossest flatus....
CRMS Principal Maria Libby said Tuesday that part of what the students wrote isn't true, and though she acknowledged that there is a punishment for "disruptive behavior," she said there is no new official policy regarding intentionally expelling flatus....
Libby added, "It's not a new policy, but farting can be considered a disruption.""
*Zero Tolerance, it has ruined the childhood a generation.
