Has anyone ever been searched in school and do they actually touch you?
This has me quite worried.
Due to the shortage of male teachers in primary schools, teachers will be allowed to search pupils of the opposite sex in certain circumstances, such as if they believe there is a risk of serious harm.
But the Human Rights committee has questioned why the same rule will also apply to searches of secondary school pupils and sixth-formers.
Ministers say teachers and college staff can be trusted to act lawfully and says two tests must be met which will ensure searches are only used on “very rare occasions” and “not arbitrarily or inappropriately”.
The bill also allows teachers to examine and remove any data on pupils’ phones or other electronic devices “if the person thinks there is good reason to do so” – guidance about which is issued by the government.
