The spokesman encouraged schools to adopt the Whole School Approach to Guidance and Discipline, under which all teachers in a school participate actively in assisting students to resolve their problems. Students with more serious problems should be referred to student guidance teachers or school social workers as appropriate for assistance.
Schools should familiarise themselves with various feasible ways of handling problem students who might require professional advice through formal and informal communication with one another and with external services agencies, including the Education Department's Services Division.
