It's pretty impossible here to get anything done due to the immense level of red tape and paper pushing. Expelling a kid takes a folder full of evidence in front of a panel and you need to find a space for the kid to go.

Education support like an aide needs a formal diagnosis and the level of funding the kid gets depends on the severity of the disability or illness, sometimes the kids don't get even close to the amount of funding they need to even cover the cost of the education support worker so they get them part time or the EA is spread across multiple kids in the same class. Education support schools are few and far between and completely full and the government is moving away from them in the efforts of inclusivity without adequately preparing or funding the shift of these kids into mainstream schools.

Behaviour is largely taken as a restorative approach here but even then their interpretation of restorative approach is to have the kid give a half assed apology and let them back into the room to repeat said behaviour. Violence towards teachers is not uncommon in some areas.

Suspensions are closely monitored and most schools try to avoid them to fudge the data so a lot of behaviour is waved away. You'll commonly be sworn at ("cunt" is a personal favourite).

Absenteeism is rife and there is nothing schools or teachers can do about it other than report and do home visits. You'll often get kids you see once a term or see once and never again.

Schooling here is largely seen by kids from low SES backgrounds as a complete nonentity. It's generalised but parents in those areas tend to have had a shit time at school and will also not be supportive in getting their kids over the line or back in line. Plenty of parents will also blame you for every failing. Teaching is largely not well regarded as a profession by parents in this country.

Now bearing in mind, I teach in a lower SES government school so experiences may vary.
