Well I would be willing to bet that most Kids will break one rule or another, mainly misdemenors a good 100 times a term, Out of school behavior should not reflect on his schooling, unless of course they are of major consequence, I hardly call an incident of D & D major. The lad obviously needs extra guidence somewhere, an theres no doubt some of that needs to come from the home. Exclusion is not allways the answer.
Prince Harry admitted smoking pot but wasnt ejected from Eton. Kids make mistakes, some more than others, and most kids will do something like smoke somthing or drink something or some other more serious mistake, its up to the adults including the parents to offer extra guidance when its nessecary.

IMHO Private school sucks anyway, generally because many of the pupils suffer delusions of grandure in a severe manner as they believe themselves to be above regular schools and kids, and if a less fortunate kid attains a place in a private school they often will make it hell for them. However regualr schools are apauling in their ciriculum and teaching methods. I am totally appauled at the level at which i feel my children are at having put them into mainstream school all their life, to me they have been taught very poorly, I should have known this I supose as my brother is also very inteligent but accademically backwards, and that is down to the way mainstream schools work. My eldest child has just started seniors and from my experience he is currently accademically ready to enter juniors. Thats about the difference between private and mainstream, mainstream being about four years backwards.

Still the worse thing you can do is send your child to a mainsteamn school after them being in the private sector, that is potentially able to totally destroy their future accademic achievement
