We are concerned that UK communities may face a systemic collapse of order due to what we see as a "zero-consequence" culture. We think that policing "low-value" theft has become optional, effectively decriminalizing some crime and eroding public trust. Shifting any accountability to schools via collective bans is a failed strategy that ignores individual responsibility. Furthermore, we feel that current frameworks penalize integrity, leaving staff vulnerable to dismissal for upholding the law. We must restore the rule of law, protect moral action, and realign educational values.
