Title: Educate Every Child: Promoting Positive Solutions to School Discipline in Virginia Summary: Too many students in Virginia’s public schools are suspended or expelled due to harsh disciplinary policies, according to this report. Based on an analysis of Virginia’s Safe School Information Resource, the report concludes that excluding students from school does not improve behaviour and comes at a grave cost to society including high dropout, crime and teacher attrition rates. The report recommends that Virginia improve school climate and students’ futures by adopting more effective approaches to managing challenging behaviour, including expanding Virginia’s successful Effective Schoolwide Discipline (ESD) programme. ESD is a framework that emphasises teaching and rewarding positive behaviour on a schoolwide, classroom and individual basis. Details: Charlottesville, VA: Legal Aid Justice Center, 2011. 19p.
