Her suggestions are good, but the vast majority of them are unrealistic in a world where we have 30+ kids in a classroom. We have a problem here, and I feel strongly that the problem is class sizes. Blaming the teacher is akin to a tile falling from a shoddily constructed roof and killing someone, and then blaming the tile for the death.
If this teacher saw what was happening and refused to stop it... sure, blame the teacher in that situation. I'd join you in blaming them. But I can't in good conscience blame a teacher for not noticing bullying inside - or outside - of a classroom with the overloaded nature of our school system. Give teachers a 10:1 - or hell, even a 15:1 - student to teacher ratio if you want the kind of one-on-one support she suggests. That would be a fantastic world, and I would love to see that come to pass.
