Breitbart A school in Leicestershire, England, has banned the terms “good” and “bad” to describe pupil behavior because the headteacher wanted to remove “emotional words” from classroom management.
Teachers at Loughborough Amherst School will instead describe good and bad behavior as either “skillful or unskillful”, with headmaster Dr Julian Murphy saying the policy, loaned from Buddhism, was “designed to take the emotional heat out of language”.
Speaking to the i newspaper, Dr Murphy said that while he did not want teachers to be “soft”, he didn’t want them to be “shouty”, either, or to “make pupils feel guilty”.
