Teachers in UK schools are trialling the use of body cameras in class to record bad pupils’ behaviour, it has been revealed.

 

英国学校的教师们正在尝试在课堂上使用随身摄像头，记录表现差的孩子们的行为。

 

At least two schools in England have introduced the equipment for constant recording¹ with the consent of local education authorities.

 

The cameras, worn on teachers’ clothing, are set to film all the time but only save encrypted footage when the record button is pressed, The Times reported.

 

Teachers are advised to turn on the cameras during incidents in the classroom to tackle "constant low-level disruption", but must give notice before doing so.

 

The technology is already used by police, parking wardens² and some hospital staff as well as crossing-patrol officers.

 

Footage could also be shared with parents to involve them in addressing their children's behaviour.

 

Feedback from parents and schools was said to be positive, with teachers praising them as an effective deterrent³.
