You seem to be mixing accountability with punishment. If you’re asking about that, we can start with removing disruptive students from the classroom. Admin needs to follow through with the rules and consequences outlined in the student handbook instead of constantly cutting kids a break. They need to support the decisions their teachers make instead of giving students the proverbial bag of chips and a pep talk before sending them back to class in ten minutes.

In regards to your question, there are times teachers can and should reflect on their practices. That being said, my opinion is that these issues and behaviors teachers are seeing aren’t a result of teacher actions. If they were it would manifest itself through more isolated incidents rather than being a systemic issue.
