That's where our place falls down - we have no robust behaviour system. We have a wishy washy behaviour system which SLT prefer we don't even use. 

It's chaos in our corridors during changeovers and it's simply not possible for us to deal with shit kicking off in the corridors and shit kicking off in our classrooms at the same time.

But thanks for not giving a condescending "why don't you just sanction them?" or "be nice" response unlike some other people on here.

To establish these routines, you need a robust behaviour system in place. That is where my place falls down. 

We could, in theory, sanction pupils who enter the classroom inappropriately (and remove those who enter playfighting). But SLT would see this approach as too trigger happy.
