This episode is partially inspired by two news stories: one where a child hospitalised two members of staff and his expulsion was overturned through an appeal; and one where a study basically lambasted schools for shortening children's school days. 

In this episode I wonder how has it suddenly become acceptable in any way to be violent towards each other?
