Here's what the Scottish Government can do to tackle the behaviour crisis: 1. Rewrite all behaviour guidance to schools 2. Remove the presumption against exclusion 3. Remove the assumption of restorative processes as the default response to misbehaviour 4. Support schools that want to use sensible sanction policies 5. Revamp teacher training to include substantial behaviour management content 6. Launch national school leadership training in behaviour systems 7.

Start tracking in-school behaviour, nationally, using annual behaviour surveys.

Should the whole of the UK get behind England in the World Cup?
The #ThreeLions beat Wales last night in Qatar and are through to the final 16.
They're the only UK nation left and are just three games away from the final.
So should everyone be cheering them on?
