Summary
Edinburgh school staff are demanding urgent action after securing over £250,000 in damages for violent incidents—over 3,000 reported attacks, likely far higher due to unreported cases, especially in specialist units. Staff face severe injuries and feel undervalued, sparking a heated debate: should schools prioritize nurturing approaches or enforce zero tolerance? With budget cuts limiting solutions, unions push for prevention through more staff and training, while the council vows to improve support—but only if funding allows.
