In Norway, schools have different practices around breaks and absences compared to Greece. Norwegian schools do not have locked schoolyards, use bells, or limit absences. Students can spend breaks wherever they want near the school and return on their own schedule. Teachers promote students based on their work rather than absences. These practices give students more freedom and teach them responsibility. Norwegian teachers and students generally support these approaches. Implementing similar practices in Greece would require changing laws and policies around school safety and absence tracking.
BEST PRACTICES Delinquent behaviour
- 1. Best practices from Norway Delinquent Behaviour
- 2. http://arbere.eu/illegalbehaviour Main differences In Norway schools don’t have a schoolyard. Students are free during their break to spend their time wherever they want near school and return to the class for the next lesson. In Greece schools have a specific schoolyard which is restricted and the central door is locked until the end of lessons. Pupils have their break into this limited space.
- 3. In Norway schools don’t use the bell. Students have their break according to the clock which is in the classroom. Students are very punctual, they check their time and return to the classroom on time. In Greece there are specific breaks and the bell is programmed to ring according to them. Students follow the bell but a lot of times they are late to return in class although the bell has already rung.
- 4. In Norway there is not a limit of absences and there is not a teacher who is responsible for student’s absences. Teachers decide about the promotion of the students without taking into consideration the number of absences. In Greece students can have 114 absences (50 unjustifiable-64 justifiable). Parents are often informed for their children’s absences from the class teacher who is in charge to check the absences.
