How to help pupils with problems
The Education Department has recently issued a circular to principals of all primary and secondary schools in advising them how to handle student problems.
The circular provided some practical suggestions to school principals, teachers and parents on how to help pupils with problems.
An Education Department spokesman said it had always been the department's concern about students with behaviour problems and schools are encouraged to adopt a more positive approach in helping these students.
The spokesman said: "Most of the problems are neither serious nor permanent and can be overcome if appropriate help can be given in time to pupils concerned."
He advised schools and parents to work closely in helping pupils with behaviour problems as prevention was better than cure.
