Zero tolerance


Meaning:

  • The policy or practice of not tolerating undesirable behaviour.
  • It means that certain actions will not be tolerated under any circumstances.


Example sentence:

As far as drugs are concerned, there is a zero tolerance policy at our school. The student will automatically be excluded.



Questions for you to answer:

  1. Do you think zero tolerance policies promote an atmosphere of safety?
  2. What should not be absolutely tolerated at schools? Bullying, harassment or school violence?
  3. Have you ever experienced any zero tolerance policies? Did you agree with them?
